I discovered an error: I had the c:\MinGW in mny path, and the 
includefiles ther was different. I should only use c:\msys\mingw.

So, I started make again, but on linking I got the "input line too long" 
error that Martin Dobias talked about on the cmake-list... :-) (I'm on 
Win2K)

Next step was using cygwin as shell (bash) and use "MSYS Makefiles" 
instead. That work for a while, until I got:

Martin, how did you pass "input line too long" ???
