Hm, they're building fine for me here, after some fixes I did last week.
One of the problems revolves around issues in WinXP SP2 and Win2003 SP1,
which can be fixed by applying the hotfixes I recommend on the following
page:
http://www.duh.org/interix/hotfixes.php
Because these hotfixes are now more-or-less required for proper gcc
operation on Interix, I will be putting this URL into the
Interix-specific portion of the pkgsrc Guide and README.
I plan to do a partial upload of binary packages tonight, which will
take a while to get there (mmm, really biased asymmetric DSL). However,
perl, gettext, and libiconv will be part of the upload.
