i am using msys + mingw for building vlc for wince

before I build it, i need to download the cross-compiler
http://www.videolan.org/pub/testing/win ... 17.tar.bz2

i extract it by typing the following command in msys:
tar xjvf wince-arm-gcc4.0.0-cvs-linux-crosscompiler-20050517.tar.bz2 -C /

but there is following errors occur

tar: usr/local/wince/cross-tools/arm-wince-pe/sys-include: Cannot create symlink to `../include': No such file or directory
tar: usr/local/wince/cross-tools/arm-wince-pe/lib/crt0.o: Cannot create symlink to `../../lib/corelibc.lib': No such file or directory
tar: usr/local/wince/cross-tools/arm-wince-pe/lib/c.lib: Cannot create symlink to `../../lib/coredll.lib': No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

how to solve the problem? THanks a lot!
