Piece of cake :-)  I have that compiling as we speak.  Haven't had time
to investigate why msys is crashing - that's on the "one of these days"
list of things to do :-)

Is there any additional switches to get the GTK interface to build?  I
haven't managed to find one yet.

I got the native win32 interface to compile, by adding one bit of code
in the vlc_common.h to get around other code that was added recently.
Must have been tired yesterday, because this didn't occur to me until
late last night.

					#if defined( __BORLANDC__ )
1.7           sam         37: #   undef HAVE_VARIADIC_MACROS
                          38: #   undef HAVE_STDINT_H
Added this line---------->	#   undef HAVE_INTTYPES_H
                          39: #endif

Cbuilder is only used to compile the win32 native interface. I never 
compiled it myself (don't have Cbuilder), when I compile vlc I always
use 
the GTK one.

As for the compilation of vlc, I usually build it from linux 
(cross-compiling) but I recently managed to compile it natively with a
mix 
of msys and cygwin. More precisely, I run ./bootstrap under cygwin, then
I 
./configure under msys until it fails (generating the Makefiles) I the 
switch to cygwin again and run ./config.status then make until it fails
and 
I finally switch back to msys and run make.

Piece of cake ;)
