Most of the /contrib projects in the current cvs sources do not compile
for various (mostly trivial) reasons. For example, conflicting
definitions for WORD tend to pop up...
Most of these projects do not have a configure script. Some of the msys
library functions like random() are missing or in the wrong place. What
is the best way to go about fixing these types of problems?
IMO, this deserves a note on the win32 status page.
