i was just wondering i know it has been a long while, but how did you solve the problem regarding can't create C executables?

i'm following this guide
http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileMSYSNew

Is it during the bootstrapping that cause it to happen?

or the config.h that too change the COMPILE_BY? (in which case i dont understand coz I found no backslash inside)

or the configure-msys ?

I did all the commands on the ~.
my OS is aslo windows 7. compiling in msys and mingw.

help...

Anyway, won't happen again.
