For folks who want to build under Windows, until the Ant build is ready
(which may be a little while yet), I suggest Cygwin. Attached is a patch
for the 1.6.94 distribution. You will need to have automake (which needs
Perl 5) installed (which I think the default Cygwin setup does).
After applying the patch, do: automake; ./configure --prefix=/somewhere;
make; make check; make install.
I'm not totally sure this is working perfectly since I saw a ClassNotFound
exception for make within gnu/commonlisp/lisp.
I know there is a way to get configure to deal with these Cygwin
differences, but I would rather get Ant working than figure that out. Also
there is a note in Make-rules on what I change to use Jikes built for Cygwin.
Eventually there will be a way to use Java as a normal Cygwin application,
but for now this isn't too terribly painful.
