GNucash for cygwin: possible...

[Frédéric Bazin]

everything is fine about the glib config
even i tryed to link manually all of the libraries libglib.....
the linker can't resolve the 3 symbols

`__imp__glib_major_version'
/cygdrive/d/DOCUME~1/fbazin/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccVwbn6A.o(.text+0x23):/home/fbazin/gnucash-1.6.8/configure:6234: 
undefined reference to `__imp__glib_minor_version'
/cygdrive/d/DOCUME~1/fbazin/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccVwbn6A.o(.text+0x2e):/home/fbazin/gnucash-1.6.8/configure:6234: 
undefined reference to `__imp__glib_micro_version'



The cause might be:
- unadequate configure script for cygwin
-wrong set up/building  of glib. I donwload a version from cygwin gnome 
project which is new from december
- wrong shell enviroment.
- i definetely have no skill about these automake/autoconf  and the 
configure script


i need help about
- configure script: how to correct diagnose the script in such 
circumstances ?
- cygwin/glib/gnome skilled people: is there some special postinstall 
trick ?
- linker /library skilled people: : how to find the library /object 
where these symbols were defined ?
