Ok, I just finished a successful mingw32 build. Just for the record, the steps I took are<br><br>* Install mingw and msys.<br>* I will call my home directory CHOME=c:/mingw/home/jjgarcia<br>* In mingw notation HOME=/home/jjgarcia<br>

* Download the 7.2a4 version of the Boehm-Weiser garbage collector from here<br>  <a href="http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc/gc_source/">http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc/gc_source/</a><br>* Download ECL<br>

* Unpack the garbage collector at $CHOME/<br>* Unpack ECL also at $CHOME<br>* Enter CHOME/gc-7.2a4, type<br>  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/mingw32 --disable-shared --enable-threads; make; make install<br>* Build the GMP library with these commands<br>

  mkdir $HOME/gmp<br>  cd $HOME/gmp<br clear="all">  $HOME/ecl/src/gmp/configure --prefix=$HOME/mingw32 --disable-shared<br>  make<br>  make install<br>* Configure ECL so that it finds the pre-built libraries<br>  cd $HOME/ecl<br>

  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/mingw32 --enable-threads \<br>    CPPFLAGS=-I$CHOME/include LDFLAGS=-L$CHOME/lib \<br>    --enable-boehm=system<br>* Build and install<br>  make; make install<br>* Enjoy<br>  $HOME/mingw32/bin/ecl.exe<br>
