Thanks, that worked. But, it makes me confused.
When I build this particular app under linux/debian,
it does NOT have the -lintl linker flag. And when I add
it, the link fails. But under cygwin, I need it.
Can anyone out there help me reconcile the issues here.
(So I can go back to the source and either provide a patch,
or do whatever to get it to work in both environs).
Thanks.
