Ive been playing with trying to compile using mxe-octave on mingw this

I didn't get far :)
All the build-xxx tools seem to install ok, with the exception of flex,
so I skipped it and installed msys-flex.

Hmm, I saw an error when building build-autoconf about the version of
m4. Adding a build-m4 package (not yet checked in) seemed to get me past
that problem, but then building the build-autoconf package failed with
errors like this:

Making all in m4sugar

You are not seeing this problem? I have no clue what's causing it.

I should add that this happens for me when trying to build on a freshly installed MinGW system, not while cross compiling.
