OK. I am now building q2c with:

mkdir non_include
echo > non_include/vsnprintf.h
echo > non_include/exit.h
echo > non_include/memcasecmp.h
echo > non_include/xvasprintf.h

export PATH=$HOST_PATH && $HOST_CC ./src/language/lexer/q2c.c -o
./src/language/lexer/q2c -I . - I non_include || ( echo could not host
compile ./src/language/lexer/q2c.c with /usr/bin/gcc && read wait )

OK, I have put a new log file, this time with backtraces up at:
 http://www.csse.uwa.edu.au/~john/make.check.log.bz2

This log file was generated from a pspp with -lmingwex and with your
patch to snprintf in gnulib.
