[sword-devel] Sword SVN Compile Issues

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Greg,
	What awesome debug information!  Thank you for being so detailed and 
more so, for your persistence!

	I've heard we have cygwin compile problems and was hoping someone 
familiar with autotools and cygwin might have a look and fix things.

	I might be able to help with the last error.  SWORD conditionally 
compiles utilstr.cpp to include an appropriate string comparison, 
ignoring case, function.  Can you confirm that 
sword/src/utilfuns/utilstr.cpp is being compiled?

	-Troy.
