RE: [xml] compiling libxml v2.4.26 with mingw under win2k

[martyn 2 russell bt com]

Ok.  Now that I am using CYGWIN with MINGW as the compiler with -mno-cygwin
it seems to configure fine and compile fine up to one point, the nanohttp
part of the library.  The output is as follows, any ideas?

Also, if I am not mistaken, are these not LINUX calls to socket functions.
Do these functions not exist under cygwin? or msys? If not, can I avoid
using nanohttp?

Plus - thanks Elizabeth for your input, this compilation has been done with
version 2.4.25-special which you sent me the link to.
