-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160
These may have been reported before, but I encountered them when trying to compile V 1.12 "as is" using MinGW & MSYS on Windows XP and had to search the Internet for possible solutions as I am no C developer:

1. sed (2002-4-30) reports errors in the regular expressions of ../windows/windres-options lines 17, 22 and 27: Extra characters after command. Two solutions have been suggested at

<http://lists-archives.org/mingw-msys/00373-sed-on-msys-error.html>

2. Even after correcting this issue the version string resource isn't linked into the binary although it compiles properly. The reason for this is to be found in ../lib/makefile.in, lines 69/70: Similar to the patch solution provided at <http://johnnypops.demon.co.uk/mingw/libiconv-use-rc.patch> adding "-Wl,libiconv.res" in line 70 solves it, but you'll probably want a more generic solution for the OBJECTS_RES_... switch to keep working properly.
