Yeah, it's complaining about not finding bison, but configure managed to
find bison just fine. Are you sure the right make was installed? It looks
suspicious because it's not talking about msys virtual maths like the old
make did. It needs to be make-3.81-3-msys-1.0.13

You'll need another couple of libraries as well (libiconv and libintl) if
they are not already installed. Making this change took me a while to get
right on dawn_bat.
I installed the latest make from gnu.org (which I've now uninstalled).
The Msys installation on this box is old, and doesn't support the lzma
packages used by the latest releases - and from what I can tell, it
would take a major upgrade of the installation to get that support.
I'm not sure thats a path I want to go down, as I have no idea how
much will break if I do that, and I don't exactly have much in the way
of spare time to fix it if that happens.
I'm currently leaning towards removing the 9.1 build from the machine;
on a purely selfish note, I have no interest in mingw/msys builds
anymore anyway. However, I'm open to suggestions if anyone knows a
relatively safe way to resolve this.
No, all you need to unpack those is the basic-bsdtar package. But to
save you the pain of all this, I have copied the three objects I
installed to get this working on my likewise pretty old Msys to where
you can get them. Just grab
<http://developer.postgresql.org/~adunstan/msys-make.tgz>
As a matter of policy, I do not want to drop support for a FOSS build
tool chain on Windows if at all avoidable.
