Hi,
I'm having trouble packaging 64-bit gc-7.2d "libgc" (upon which w3m
depends). There are extensive 32-bit Cygwin adaptations to the upstream
libgc code. After much trial and error it seems I lack the experience in
Windows memory internals required to build a 64-bit port.
I'll continue trying but in the interest of speed, at this point I would
gladly turn over this 64-bit package to any volunteer.
Bob
