My tests went somewhat further than they ever had before on MinGW/MSYS/Wine. The test_noninteractive and test_interactive targets worked just as they had before in the build tree, but also this time ctest worked there as well. But I ran into errors when I attempted to extend the tests beyond that. For example, I could build the installed examples, but the Ada variants of those immediately errored out with a return code of 3 (presumably due to some Ada path transformation issues for MinGW/MSYS.)
I have decided this result is good enough for this release cycle; I have proved at least we don't have a MinGW/MSYS regression for this release, and actually some improvement for that platform. To get tests of the MinGW/MSYS platform working for more than just the build tree will require additional post-release work. So roughly 8 hours from now (after I get some sleep) I plan to start the release process. N.B. Commit freeze is still in effect. N.B. My incoming e-mail chain is still broken so I will continue to monitor http://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/mailman/plplot-devel/ in case one of you has some urgent release news for me.
