Oh, cool and thanks.

I will of course check it out.

Note. So far I succeeded pretty far in getting the cvs HEAD compiled
(with x86 as target, however). Some minor discrepanties about errno.h
and stuff like that .. and winver.h not existing (check my new post).

Oh ok. Well, to the maintainers of pthread-win32: it would be very
interesting to have default wince support! ;)

ps. My plan is to after this try to get glib (from the GNOME stack)
working. And after that, who knows, the win32 gtk+ port of Tor. Guessing
iconv and pthread will be the two most difficult dependencies.

Ok, I'll try that.
