Compiling from SVN for Windows

[Brian J. Ackermann]

Hi all (and Inge especially...).

I recently discovered Pingus, and it caught my attention.  I decided
that I should try to build it on windows.  I got the source from SVN. 
I got the ExternalLibs for ClanLib.  I got the source for ClanLib.

I'm running WinXP-sp2 with VS.NET2003.

I followed the directions for compiling ClanLib (0.7.8) and that went
without a hitch.  I then build a few of the example projects, and they
both compiled and ran perfectly.

But, when I then tried to compile Pingus, I got many errors (the first
50 lines listed following  the message).  Can anyone offer a
suggestion as to what I should try next?

Once I've got it up and running, I will also be interested in
contributing to the development process in some way.

Looking forward to working with you all.

Brian.
