Thanks for the reminder.  For it to even compile for me on NT4, I had to change the DIRECTX_VERSION to 0x0300 instead of 5.  NT4 only works with UP TO version 3.1.  ;)

It may be bad for linux compiling, but it works for me, if I don't put it that way, it doesn't detect.  I also forgot to mention about the portion of the cygwin.txt file where you have to move -lXv to the beginning instead of end.  Could set up configure to do it instead...

What exactly doesn't work?

I forgot to remove -mwindows from this line.  My fault.  The -mwindows is what tells it to act like a normal wind*ws app, which does not give any stdout/stderr, unless in debug maybe...

I'm seeing what I can do to get win32 libs working, maybe by the end of next week.  (Sorry, but I am no where close to the level of the original authors...)
