[tuhopuu-devel] Lots of Cygwin/win32-ERRORS lately!

[Chris Want]

Hi Simon,

Unfortunately I won't be able to look into
this (or any other blender related matter)
for several weeks. The good news though, is
that I uploaded to cvs the makefile I used to
build ftgl when I finally got it to work.
It is here:

http://projects.blender.org/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/lib/windows/gcc/ftgl/lib/Makefile?rev=HEAD&cvsroot=bf-blender&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

Hope this helps!

Chris
