Building fails on Win32

Building fails on Win32

[AriT93]

Good Morning,

     For the last 2 days I have been getting the following error when building
     from trunk:

,----

I see that stat.h was just added on 4/4 is there a new dependency that I need to
get?

This is on XP with a fresh checkout using tools from GnuWin32.  Please let me
know if there is any other information that would be needed.

Please post what GCC prints if you invoke it with "gcc --version", and
also the version of MinGW you have installed (you can find the version
at the end of the `_mingw.h' header file).

My crystal ball says that somehow either _CRTIMP or __cdecl are not
being defined, which is why the compiler barfs on these 3 lines.

Upgragding mingw seems to have corrected this.  How at 3.14 and it's building
the bootstrap emacs and compiling the lisp files. 

_CRTIMP and __cdecl were being defined from what I could see int he _mingw.h
file.

I think I see now what was the problem: it was the __MINGW_NOTHROW
thing.  It was introduced only in MinGW 3.13.  I've checked in a fix
now, so if you can still try building with MinGW 3.12, please see if
the problem went away.

Thanks for reporting the bug and for helping me solve it.

I'll revert and give it a go. I am on way out today but should be able to try it
tomorrow or monday.

I cannot seem to find a copy of MinGW 3.12 anywhere.  the sourceforge site only
has 3.13 and 3.14 available and google is turning up nothing but rpms and the
cygwin package.  I'll keep looking though.

Look at this page:

  http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435

under "Previous", you will find there all the older versions of the
MinGW runtime.

Couldn't find 3.12 there but was able to build successfully with 3.11.  

Thank you for fixing this.

One more thing: please remove all the *.o files from the
src/oo-spd/i386 directory, so that they are recompiled, because the
new definition of `struct stat' is incompatible with the previous one,
which could cause all kinds of weird bugs.  (I don't think this is the
cause of the failure to compile, though.)
