Re: Again on Windows support (2)

["carlo\.bramix" <carlo.bramix@libero.it>]

Hello,
the problem with the library installed into /lib directory instead of /bin is caused by "-module" parameter into LDFLAGS.
This parameter should be moved into configure script and it must be used for platforms that really need it (at least, not for mingw and cygwin).
I also removed the "-lguile" parameter from LDFLAGS because it must use what it has been written into LIBADD.
I did this change and it worked fine on cygwin and linux Debian 5.0

Sincerely,

Carlo Bramini.
