Jean Phillippe LEBEL from forward is interested in a working [out of
the box] windows build of CERTI.
May be with MSVC instead of mingw but, I think there are mostly common issues.

Please |re-]read this ML thread:

what is the auto-import feature?

libRTI-NG is missing symbols from libFedTime.

Yes there is some:
https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?7566
https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?7569
https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?30003

but none of this was in satifactory state for being merged to HEAD.
I won't have much time for Windows testing but I would be pleased
to review windows relatred-patch and run non-regression tests on unix platform.

I'm sure we can end-up with something satisfactory for both Windows
and Linux (or other unices).
Once we are in that state we can setup systematic build
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/certi-devel/2008-10/msg00028.html
in order to avoid breaking the Windows build again.
