Hi Derek,

No, I don't have cygwin installed.

I have used Linux before, and can still go back to it whilst
still using windows but my target deployment machine must be a 
windows machine.

Can I build Gnucash for windows on a linux machine?
If that is possible, then I could give it a shot.

Thank you very much for your help so far.

Cheers,

Chikelue

Sorry, I have no idea what to tell you.  Do you perhaps have both mingw
and cygwin installed on the system?  Maybe multiple versions of m4?

Sorry,

Maybe you should just install Linux?  ;)
