[wmii] wmii on Interix

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I've tried compiling/installing wmii on
Interix (Microsoft Services For UNIX 3.5) on M$ Windows XP, but keep getting
compile errors. I've tried dwm, which compiles, installs and works nicely :-)

The gcc version it uses is 3.3.

Actually, it gets stuck on compiling libixp-4.0. This is the output that "gmake clean install"
gives:

I'm not very used to tracking down this kind of compile problems, i have some experience
with running Gentoo for a few years, and i really liked wmii; that's why I'm trying this now (I'm
locked to running Windows now. :-( )

Maybe this is more of an Interix problem than a wmii/libixp problem though...

Any help appreciated :)
