[Mono-list] Error in building Mono with mono-build-w32.sh

[Andrew Stopford]

Just a thought but based on all the emails concerning building Mono
using cygwin on the Windows platform it seems that a write up of the
process and known issues/work arounds would help greatly in building
Mono on the Windows platform. Do any of you folks agree?

I'm using a W2K pc with cygwin loaded and up to date as of 1 Jan.
Ok...I just updated from cvs and tried to make mcs and mono. Mcs
compiled fine but I got this error in using mono-build-w32.sh....

I'm not a really good programmer in C# yet and after one look at
appdomain.c, I decided to report in and not try to figure it out. :p
I hope Dietmar or Patrik can figure this out soon. I need my mono fix
*grin*.
