[Numpy-discussion] Q: NumPy (svn) with cygwin build error?

[Kyle Ferrio]

Hello.

Starting from a freshly installed cygwin, I have built Python 2.5, ATLAS and 
LAPACK all from source using gcc 3.4.4 (cygming special) for both the C and 
f77 compilers.

Now I am trying to build NumPy from SVN.  I have edited site.cfg so that

  python setup.py  config --compiler=mingw32

finds all of the linear algebra packs and completes without error.  Then I 
fire off

  python setup.py  build --compiler=mingw32

and I soon get (while building extension numpy.random.mtrand)

  _configtest.c:7:2: #error No _WIN32

which is not immediately fatal but definitely a concern.  Soon after, 
building numpy.core.multiarray gives me this:

directory

I am puzzzled, because /usr/include/sys/select.h does exist.  But maybe 
that's not what pyport.h is actually looking for?

I've been banging away at this for several hours, so I must be doing 
something silly.  Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks!
