Hi Stas,

I meant 'does it rely on cygwin1.dll or is it native'?
No idea, whatever the person who put it on sourceforge built.

If people are distributing binaries that rely on the cygwin runtime they usually say something about it somewhere, so I'll assume not in in this case. I just asked because the path was listed as C:\cygwin\bin\re2c.exe in your original post.

I downloaded re2c.exe from sourceforge release, did checkput of 5.3, buildconf and configure. Since configure now produces RE2C_FLAGS=null in makefile, build failed. After removing that line, build worked.
Mine worked from scratch... I'm not sure which is weirder :)
Nevermind, I fixed it.

yes... but given that mine worked in the first place, the question is whether your (and Scott's) fixes will work here, which means I now need to check out 5_3 and try again. Sorry, it's going to have to be after I finish work for the day, taken up too much time already. - Steph
