Hello,

I've been too button-happy and accidentally removed the pan mails that were relevant to my subject, and therefore I am posting my matter to this new thread.

In a bug report [1], I propose an addition to have a cross-compilable setup (based on the NSIS GPL'ed software, tested under Debian) and the corresponding patch(es). An old installer is present at [2], but I currently have no time to update it and the corresponding patches.

This set of patches features interesting (I believe) stuff such as:
- gtkspell support, although this adds another dependency on aspell at runtime.
- custom fetching of aspell and language dictionaries from within the installer (inspired from the gaim installer) - modification for win32 of the install goal so as to build the installer instead of installing files under $prefix.

I was expecting Darren to report whether he could build without too much difficulties, but as he hasn't shown up yet, I would like to ask if anyone making win32 builds from source would be so kind as to test these patches.

As I said, it was made for 0.108, but I have good hope it applies cleanly, albeit with some fuzz. On [3], I also provide some pre-compiled libraries (and with modified [butchered] source at their side) as required by the expected statical inclusion of pcre (i.e. no pcre3.dll alongside).
