That's not too surprising, as a look into the configuration step classes will show. In config/init/miniparrot.pm, we find this documentation: "Modifies settings to match miniparrot (ANSI C Parrot)'s needs. This step primarily overwrites a lot of settings in the Configure database to disable JIT and match ANSI characteristics." And in many of the later config step classes, calling Configure.pl with --miniparrot short-circuits causes such classes to be essentially skipped. > This enables "make" to fall on its face with > the following message: > > C:\parrot>make > MAKE Version 5.2 Copyright (c) 1987, 2000 Borland > Error makefile 2306: Redefinition of target 'compilers\imcc\main.obj' > *** 1 errors during make *** > > Any suggestions for further floundering would be welcome. > Unfortunately, I have no experience with Borland specifically or C-compilers on Win32 more generally.
