mapserver4.4.1 binary build

[Bob Bruce]

John:
   the "MapServer 4.4 Win32 Compilation and Installation HOWTO" at
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc44/win32_compile-howto.html explains that
you will likely have to fix this in regex.c, after fixing it your code
should look like:

//extern void printchar ();
void printchar( int i ) {}

instead of:

extern void printchar ();

I suggest you open the HOWTO and search for "printchar"

I'm in the middle of trying to sort out problems with the WIN32 build myself
and came across this.
