+Summary: Problems Building mono on Windows 
+
+Can not build mono on windows using the mono-build-w32.sh due to build 
+errors.  Most likely a cause of the cygwin setup.  The mono-build-w32.sh 
+needs to be updated to reflect current cygwin and mono.  
+
+Some suggestions for resolving the build errors include:
+1. removing pkg.m4 from /usr/share/aclocal
+   and pkg-config.exe from /bin
+   (this was the pkg-config installed by cygwin)
+   This may solve the duplicate macros or pkg-config problem.
+   The build script installs an older pkg-config.
+2. downgrading mingw to 1.3 and win32api to 1.4.1
+3. including certain packages...
+4. excluding certain packages...
+
+I think (not sure) including certain packages will cause cygwin to 
+automatically install the latest mingw and win32api.
+
+Other errors include:
+1. fail at pedump extracting exported symbol list from `cygintl-2.dll'
+2. fail at 4 or 5 errors saying undefined reference to 
+__gc_unordered_compare when compling mint
