[Gdal-dev] recent compile on cygwin?

[Matt Wilkie]

Hi Mateusz,

I tried again today against svn revision 13119 and configure still 
doesn't find libxercesc. Or more precisely, the xercesc headers are 
found but the library is not. Config.log attached.

thank you for efforts looking into a build environment you personally 
don't have access to. I guess we'll have to wait for a developer with 
cygwin experience to get interested.

take care,

-matt
