[postgis-users] configure error

[Roland Forster]

Hello,

I tried to configure postgis like it is explained in "The NON-UNIX User's
Guide to Installing PostGIS on Windows".
PostgreSQL was installed as a service and runs.
The source code of PostgreSQL is also installed.
And gcc, gcc2, gcc-mingw are available.

When I try to configure the following message returns:

postgres at ROCKY /usr/src/postgresql-7.2.2-1
$
./configure --enable-multibyte --with-CXX --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --

Does anyone knows what's going wrong?
