In summary, trying to build libcurl from source using 7.26.0 and
having no luck at all.

Configure runs fine (or at least doesn't seem to die, although there
are errors in the config.log):

  curl version: 7.26.0
  Host setup: i686-pc-mingw32
  Install prefix: /usr/local
  Compiler: gcc
  SSL support: no (--with-{ssl,gnutls,nss,polarssl,cyassl,axtls} )
  SSH support: no (--with-libssh2)
  zlib support: no (--with-zlib)
  krb4 support: no (--with-krb4*)
  GSSAPI support: no (--with-gssapi)
  SPNEGO support: no (--with-spnego)
  TLS-SRP support: no (--enable-tls-srp)
  resolver: default (--enable-ares / --enable-threaded-resolver)
  ipv6 support: no (--enable-ipv6)
  IDN support: no (--with-libidn)
  Build libcurl: Shared=yes, Static=yes
  Built-in manual: no (--enable-manual)
  --libcurl option: enabled (--disable-libcurl-option)
  Verbose errors: enabled (--disable-verbose)
  SSPI support: no (--enable-sspi)

  LDAPS support: no (--enable-ldaps)
  RTSP support: enabled
  RTMP support: no (--with-librtmp)
  Protocols: DICT FILE FTP GOPHER HTTP IMAP LDAP POP3 RTSP SMTP
TELNET TFTP

and when I try to compile I get:

Anyone know how to get this working?

There seem to be lots of threads about autotools are under mingw and
various errors, but nothing specifically about this.

I'm not really familiar with autotools, but I see this:

doug_at_zed /d/projects/moai-dev/3rdparty/curl-7.26.0
$ grep failed config.log | wc
    784 3136 24304

with errors like:

configure:36862: result: no
configure:36871: checking deeper for getnameinfo
configure:36888: gcc -o conftest.exe -g0 -O2 -Wno-system-headers
conftest.c -lwldap32 -lws2_32 >&5
C:\DOCUME~1\doug.ZED\LOCALS~1\Temp\ccCcRPCd.o:conftest.c:(.text.startup+0xc):

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:36888: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "curl"
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "curl"
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION "-"
| #define PACKAGE_STRING "curl -"
| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "a suitable curl mailing list:
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/"

Is that normal?

-_- this is really vexing. I thought autotools was supposed to fix
these compatibility issues.

Anyhow, if anyone can give me some guidance on getting this working,
it'd be much appreciated.

(I'm reasonably sure like my build environment is sane; I can compile
expact, a-cres, zlib, etc. without a hitch...)

Cheers,
Doug.
