Great. That's what I get too (+ _wctype and _iswctype), so at 
least I know it is not something peculiar to my setup. I guess 
there's some lib missing somewhere, but I don't know how you 
built it before if that is so. I don't have time right this 
minute to look at it either.

You did. I am stupid. Or blind. Or both. (No, this is not a CFV 
:-) Sorry, Gary. I think I didn't see it because I thought that 
that directory was, well, what it said, patches to make the 
thing build on Cygwin, which should be applied against the 
official source. Funnily enough I was going to suggest that each 
src package have a script included which built the package as 
done by the maintainer, but I see I am too late.

I'm going to have a bash about with this over the next week and 
will let you know what I find out, if anything. Thanks for your 
time Gary, you too Justin.
