I've encountered this problem in the opposite direction, i.e. trying to
build CRLF srcs on an OS/2 HPFS partition with Linux gcc. If Kamel is
building the tarball, the srcs likely still have NL instead of the CRLF
line endings CPP probably expects on Windows. I would suggest trying
CVS, which automatically converts them for the client, or running the
tarball srcs through a conversion utility. info-zip, which is available
for Win32, has conversion flags that make it easy to convert entire src
trees simply by zipping and unzipping. Or single directories can be
converted with:
perl -i.bak -perl *.*
