Try uncommenting it, LIBOBJS="`echo ${LIBOBJS} | sed 's/fileblocks\.o//g'`" Or creating an empty fileblocks.c, guile shouldn't actually need anything in it. Incidentally, last time I tried cross-compiling to mingw (a while ago now) it didn't work. I think in the end it bombed because mingw didn't have pthreads and guile wasn't yet setup for no-threads in the 1.8 branch. :( > As a general question as well (slightly off-topic), it seems the files > in EXTRA_DOT_DOC_FILES are compatibility-ish wrappers (for windows > perhaps).

Most come from autoconf. _______________________________________________ Bug-guile mailing list Bug-guile@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-guile
