Alas I need a cygwin build.
The cygwin parrot package is quite old at 0.8.1.
I'm surprised to have such difficulty building under cygwin.
It seems that parrot $ make install-dev isn't installing the
correct things, but I don't know what I'm looking for, that is,
what it's failing to install corre

Gah. Sorry for the quasi-double-post. I posted on google groups, it
didn't show up, then I jumped the gun and posted a similar message to
the ML.

Hi Neil,
there exists already packages in cygwin for rakudo and parrot. Reini
Urban put them in. I don't not know about the current version number.
But rakudo and parrot should build out of the box under Windows.
You don't need cygwin.
The last time I build Rakudo under Windows I installed:
MinG
Using a clean git clone I went back and tried
perl Configure.pl --gen-parrot which failed in a new way:
/work/solon/neilmowbray/tool/foo/rakudo/parrot_install/src/2.0.0-devel/pmc/s
ub.dump
/work/solon/neilmowbray/tool/foo/rakudo/parrot_install/src/2.0.0-devel/pmc/u

Or, more Perl like:

Yes I tried the --gen-parrot and it had a similar problem.
For the below, I did a clean svn checkout of parrot and
git clone. For parrot I did
$ perl Configure.pl
$ make
$ make fulltest
$ make install
$ make install-dev
However that didn't copy cygparrot.dll to /usr/local/bin
and the parrot.dll

Hi Folks,
This is the first time I have tried to compile parrot and perl6.
I have tried various combinations of perl6 and parrot snapshots
but all perl6 builds fail (at different places). Can anyone help
me get a clean build?
For example getting the latest parrot from svn truck and perl6
from gi
