http://mingw-w64.sf.net Specifically, the mingw-w64-crt sub project. It's completely non-recursive. The only thing you really have to watch out for with non-recursive automake is that all source file references have to be from the top of your source directory. For instance, say you have this: src/Makefile.am src/file1.c src/file2.c src/more/Makefile.am src/more/file3.c src/more/file4.c If you include src/more/Makefile.am into src/Makefile.am (a perfectly valid thing to do), you will be unpleasantly surprised that src/more/Makefile.am has to actually know where it is in the source tree. It needs lines like this: prog_SOURCES += more/file3.c more/file4.c and **NOT** this: prog_SOURCES += file3.c file4.c It's really annoying. It means that renaming a directory is reaaaaaaly hard.
