The premade msys that I used (linked in earlier emails) puts the mingw 
install inside the msys structure.  I tied  the install method described 
in the wiki and I think it created a c:\mingw dir and put msys inside of 
that.

I'm not sure about this. My msys doesn't seem to find all those mingw 
includes by default. With either install method I don't recall that a 
/usr/local exists until I started make install'ing stuff.   Is it 
possible that you have a mount?  I may try to install it according to 
the wiki again but it was so 'piece meal' that when I discovered a 
premade I used that instead.  If you have notes on creating a good msys 
install I'm interested in those too.

Thanks for the patch I will need it.
