Don't need new specs under mingw; was due to faulty installation
What did you have to do to your MinGW to make it not faulty?
I've had problems with building JNA with MinGW in the past, so it
would be useful to know what one has to tweak to make MinGW's
linker happy.
It wasn't on purpose; I had to rebuild my laptop after a HD failure,
so I got a clean mingw install.
mingw builds originally were complaining at link time about being
unable to find one of the crt* startup objects, even though it seemed
to be in the path, and no amount of -L or explicit object references
would help. I patched the specs file to include the explicit path to
the missing object, used "-specs <file>" in the command, and
everything worked properly.
You might be able to fix the install by reinstalling the gcc/binutils
bits.
