Hello,
I am having a problem compiling pdcurses 3.4 in my machine. My OS is windows XP SP3.
My mingw32-make is version 3.81.
According to the readme file all I had to do was go and issue a make command to get it done. And so I did.
mingw32-make -f mingwin32.mak
This starts the make process but it fails somewhere along the way in two places. One is ignored and the other stops the make.
EDIT: Added the whole log, instead of just the error. Warning ... it is big. As you can see changing copy with xcopy solved the copy problem.

Does anyone have any idea what the reason might be and/or how I can fix it and compile pdcurses? Thank in advance.
