RE: [Bug-gsl] installation problems under Cygwin

[David Wilson]

Hi, I figured out the main problem: the configure script determined that "ln 
-s" works, and so make makes links to header files, which gcc is then unable to 
read.  (The gcc is from msys rather than cygwin, which might account for the 
inability to read symbolic links.)  I modified the script so that "ln" is used 
instead, and the installation progressed much further before encountering 
additional problems.  Here's the log showing the next problem that occurs.

GSL-1.3 should compile on Cygwin, although I haven't tried it
myself.  Can you send a transcript of the build process and
error messages.  Thanks.
