This has now successfully configured, compiled, linked, and started
running tests. But then my laptop ran out of power (I mistakenly
switched of the power strip), and I can't restart untill I get back to
work (it _must_ be on the domain network to survive a restart! Just
amazing).

More later today (I have to go in to work for another reason).

I have a patch for m4/pcre.m4 that fixes a similar problem on Win32
(it will show up on any system that doesn't have pkg-config).
ac_link uses CPPFLAGS, _not_ CFLAGS. try specifying CPPFLAGS on the
configure command line.

I'll commit my patch after my laptop reboots.

I can provide MinGW. It may be rather long, depending on detail. I
guess we can assume a competent developer, not a complete newbie.

I was thinking we should split INSTALL into separate files
(INSTALL.windows_mingw, etc), but let's see how big it gets first.

I'll add instructions for what's working now, then try to get
pkg-config working (that should simplify some things).
