Compiling GnuCash on Windows

OK, thanks for your help, got it installed. :-)

But it seems to crash on any operation involving the Windows file system:
loading a qif, saving a file, etc. Also, in the command prompt window is the
following:

gnucash: [E] "Failed to fork child process."

Is there a way to generate a backtrace in Windows? 

Thanks,
Brian

I anticipated that problem :) Make sure you always use recent scripts and
auxiliary files. Best would be to checkout the whole packaging/win32
directory and update before doing anything.

Quick fix: Update your custom.sh.
