Well, I just took the log of the failing link stage, not the prior
compilation.

Strange, I thought it eventually rebuilt everything, but apparently, it
didn't, and required a "make clean".

OK, nevermind then. ;-)  Sorry for the false alarm, I should have tried
that "make clean" before I guess.


Btw., I can now successfully cross-compile a Win32 binary in FreeBSD,
using the following steps:

. install mingw32-binutils, mingw32-bin-msvcrt, and mingw32-gcc ports
  (for other systems, pick the respective equivalents)

. unpack libusb-win32-src-1.2.5.0, compile it using

  gmake host_prefix=mingw32

. install src/lusb0_usb.h into mingw32's include directory, and
  libusb.a into mingw32's lib directory

. configure it with

  env CC=mingw32-gcc ./configure --target=i586-mingw32 --host=`./config.guess`

. compile it

Similarly, it should be possible to cross-compile it on Linux and
MacOS X that way.

That means I can provide a Win32 binary release next time.
