So I've taken courage thanks also to the work done by Patricia Shanahan on building OpenOffice in Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. I'm using Windows 10, and I've sorted through the first few obstacles and my build has now been running for 5-6 hours without any trouble. Until now that is. It just broke while building "guistdio.exe" in the desktop module. I'm not really seeing much information that can help me though, can any pick out what the trouble might be? Here is the last part of the build output:
