Re: Possible Bug in Makefile

[Michel Boaventura]

It works like a charm, but I made a little change on the path using
$(EXEEXT_FOR_BUILD) in the place of address@hidden

Im compilling on my ubuntu using mingw and wine. The pspp.exe works
with no problems, and im now trying to make psppire.
I like the cygwin version, but I think that if we have a version
working "native" on windows will be cooler :P

Thanks for the feedback, and by the way, I compiled 0.6.1-rc1 on mingw
with no problems(only the q2c issue).
