Ok, I'm looking at this. Apparently you developed patch2 to solve the problem of not being to make dll's. I fixed a couple syntax errors in the build script (bash is fussier now?), and ran prep2. The patch didn't go through cleanly - one reject I think. Then it quit during the aclocal command, complaining about a missing file (don't have the error in front of me right now). I'm really out of my depth in working with autoconf/automake. Is there any way that you could bring patch2 back to the point where it works again? jrp
