Re: PSPP-BUG: [bug #59673] cross compilation is not possible

[Ben Pfaff]

There's nothing magic in my buildscripts, I just install the
wine-binfmt package on my Debian box and then you can run Windows
binaries directly via Wine.

I haven't tried this recently so it's possible we need to add some
$EXEEXT variables in the build scripts now.
