It doesn't compile for me under Windows XP SP2 + mingw GCC 4.5.2:
the problem seems to be the "comment" at line 51 of in src/Makefile:
# DLL needs all object files
it isn't recognized as such and it causes an error when make
processes that line.
Agree it's a location best avoided.
Windows XP SP3 / mingw GCC 4.5.2 / make 3.81 / msys+mintty worked for me
for Lua 5.1.5. Samples:
$ gcc -v test
gcc.exe: test: No such file or directory
Using built-in specs.
...
$ gcc -v "# test"
gcc.exe: # test: No such file or directory
Using built-in specs.
...
$ gcc -v # test
Using built-in specs.
...
If gcc didn't see the comment, then maybe bash did it in, or the startup
code? I'm on msys bash 3.1.17(1).
And it seems that Windows shell doesn't like it: one of the errors
spit out by make during (failed) compilation is:
gcc: #: No such file or directory
