Mysql 5 does compile fine under Cygwin, but you may require a few small
patches.  Search the archives for details.  But if you're planning to
use the server (instead of just the client utils and libs) then you will
be somewhat disappointed.

I'm configured with --with-embedded-server under the source tree! I've need the libmysqld.a library, for my application.


I've never tried building the embedded server.  Try a vpath build, and
try re-bootstrapping the autotools.  Also, search for Gerrit's patches
in the archives.  If none of these work then you'll have to try to find
out what the problem is by looking into the build system.

Put this patch and the script in a directory with the 4.1.13a tarball:


http://anfaenger.de/cygwin/mysql/mysql-4.1.13a-1.patch.zip
http://anfaenger.de/cygwin/mysql/mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh


cd to the same directory, unzip the patch: $ unzip mysql-4.1.13a-1.patch.zip and call the script several times: $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh prep $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh lnconf $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh conf $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh build $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh install $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh strip $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh pkg $ ./mysql-4.1.13a-1.sh spkg


After this, the library should be in mysql-4.1.13a/.inst/usr/lib and in the devel tarball created in the last step.
