The problem is that Windows has no standard C compiler. I'm now thinking that rather than building the libraries; we should just manually release a 32-bit DLL for libmemutil.c and libsleepycat.c and skip the compilation step. I assume most Windows Elephant users will have one, but maybe it can be a configuration option. If the option is unset, the system defaults to loading the pre-packaged windows DLLs.
Please try the latest HEAD on Win32 + BDB, it won't compile but if you follow the instructions in INSTALL you should be able to build one manually. I have a new Core 2 Duo PowerMac showing up on Monday and as it's 64-bit it will break my existing environment, so I'm going to focus on finishing the 64-bit port that Marco started a couple of weeks ago, but I can integrate any changes you suggest early next week.
