two things:

* some systems dont have ranlib, rather they perform reindexing
automatically within ar. i dont have autoconf250 here to make u a diff,
but the following changes are necessary:

configure.in: add "AC_PROG_RANLIB"
platform.inc.in: add "RANLIB=@RANLIB@"
Makefile: replace "ranlib $(STATIC_LIB)" with "$(RANLIB) $(STATIC_LIB)"

* on line 58 of sources.inc, there is a line containing only a tab. this
causes problems with an older version of sgi make. please remove this
line!


it works well with mingw/msys, but my cygwin has stuff upped (and unable
to test it). otherwise its good to go.
