Thanks very much for the help, I'll have to look further at mingw.

This gives nothing but grepping for reg gave inter alia
...
configure:24696: checking regex.h usability
conftest.c:94:19: regex.h: No such file or directory
| #include <regex.h>
configure:24738: checking regex.h presence
conftest.c:61:19: regex.h: No such file or directory
| #include <regex.h>
configure:24807: checking for regex.h
ac_cv_header_regex_h=no
which I guess is relevant...

In porting GNU Denemo to windows I noticed that make-regexp is not
present. I found an obscure comment in one file that indicates this is a
known limitation. Can anyone confirm this? Are there some release notes
that I should have seen?
Is it a problem that is likely to be fixed?

FWIW, I work with another app (completely unrelated
to guile) that uses basic, simple, straightforeward
regexp's from the C library. Initial feedback from
windows users seems to be that the windows world
has no f**ing idea of what a regexp is; its not in
windows, its not supported by Microsoft. Somewhere,
there's some port of (gnu?) regexp libs to windows,
but rank-n-file windows programmers that I deal with
don't seem to know how to download/compile/build/install
such things.
You may have better luck with this; I don't know how to
code on windows, so I punted.

It should be available as long as Guile is configured with
`--enable-regex' (which is the default) and regcomp(3) is provided by
the C library, which I'd expect to be the case here.
Can you show the result of "grep regcomp config.log" when configured on
MinGW?
Thanks,
Ludo'.
