Hmm.  I'm usually able to build trunk on win32.  I was able to
as recently as last week.  (I'm using vs.net 2003.)

As of tonight, though, after updating to SVN revision 14365, I'm
getting an error while building extensions:

compiling ripper

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 7.10.3077
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'ripper.c'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '.\miniruby.exe' : return code '0x1'
Stop.


.... Hmm, strange, looks like ripper.c should have been built
using the .y.c rule in the Makefile.

I hacked in an explicit rule for ripper.c, based on the .y.c
rule:

ripper.c: ripper.y
        $(BISON) -t -v -oy.tab.c ripper.y
        sed -f $(top_srcdir)/tool/ytab.sed -e "/^#/s!y\.tab\.c!$@!" y.tab.c > $@
        @$(RM) y.tab.c


After that, all of trunk built for me.

Note, I do have cygwin installed, which is providing some of
the tools like `bison` and `sed` which are used during some
parts of the build.


Regards,

Bill
