Noah, That comment wasn't intended as a criticism, just an observation.
Mostly, my ignorance. Just figured out that the ./configure command yields the following options: --with-erlang=PATH set PATH to the Erlang include directory --with-js-include=PATH set PATH to the SpiderMonkey include directory --with-js-lib=PATH set PATH to the SpiderMonkey library directory --with-openssl-bin-dir=PATH path to the open ssl binaries for distribution on Windows Maybe a few more ? --with-openssl-dir - for the general OpenSSL case --with-icu-dir=<xxx> (might need a greater number of options - based on earlier comments in this thread) --with-curl-dir=<xxx> Does that help?
