It doesn't work on MinGW either.  Can't find the library.  I suspect 
either quoting problems or library directory installation problems.  I'm 
afraid I can't fix this quickly.  I'm under financial duress; I went to 
Portland and made close to $0 on signature gathering. The Washington 
season is over now and I need a new job.  I can't really spend time on 
this until I've got a job, I can only shoot at "the easy stuff here and 
there."

I've also discovered that under a MSYS shell, csi yields no #;1> prompt 
and doesn't respond to commands.  Works fine under a normal Windows 
command prompt, and also under a Cygwin shell.  This is true of Chicken 
in general, not just CMake builds.  I wonder what's different about 
MSYS; I know that many apps suffer compatibility problems with its shell.
