I'm using Windows 2000, and was following closely the instructions in 
Readme.MinGW (e.g. used MSYS with MinGW). The libtiff (3.5.7) was taken 
from sourceforge (GnuWin32), and it does require libjpeg.dll.

Hmm, after some initial problems related to drive/path specifics (which 
have been fixed a few days ago) I could start some of the example apps 
(gui tests, Calculator.app, CurrencyConverter). Not that they were 
really usable, but I did'nt expect that.
However, I do not have a clean system, as WO4.5 and Cygwin are 
installed... Other than that, I see no differences to your setup.


About my initial question - what  objc-capable gdb shall I use under 
MinGW? Did you try to trace your problem in gdb?

Thanks,

Andreas
