Interesting. When I was playing with it over the weekend, cl wasn't working for some reason, and wouldn't compile my test program under MSYS unless I used a modified cccl to convert the parameters. However, I ran it this morning, and it ran just fine after I removed the '-g' from the CFLAGS in the makefile. Thanks. I've been looking forward to learning autoconf/automake for sometime now, and just now had the opportunity - and I have to support Linux/Unix/Windows at the same time (just made sense). Thanks for the help.
