Building glib 2, Cygwin

["James E. LaBarre" <jamesl bestweb net>]

(this was supposed to be mailed from *this* email address, not my other 
one.  Excuse me if it ends up being duplicated.  Need to fix my Netscape 
configuration).




Compiling 0.17.1 under Cygwin, I eventually get this message during the
install for glib 2.0.6:


============================
*** Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by
../glib/libglib-2.0.la.
*** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when
*** you link to this library.  But I can only do this if you have a
*** shared version of the library, which you do not appear to have.
libtool: link: warning: `/lib/libintl.la' seems to be moved
rm -fr .libs/libgobject-2.0.la .libs/libgobject-2.0.* .libs/libgobject-2.0.*
============================


It has already made it's way through the ./glib files, and seems to have
  run OK there.  But once it gets to the ./work/glib-2.0.6/gobject/*.c
files, I get this error at the beginning, then a long string of
"undefined reference" errors  (such as below):

Does that shared library error earlier on have something to do with
this?  (I have a log file of the entire run, including the errors, if it
would be of any use to anyone).
