[libcutl-users] Build of libcutl failed on MingW

[Keenan Carter]

Boris,

Good call, you're right.

In the shell I ran the mount command and it returned,

C:\NoSpacesPaths\MinGW on /mingw type user (binmode)
This should have been drive E:, I didn't know where/how MingW had initially
set up
the mount point for /mingw when I installed it, so I just reinstalled it
and the mount command
returned,

E:\NoSpacesPaths\MinGW on /mingw type user (binmode)

This time it worked and I was able to build it with no problems.

I hope this help anyone else who has a similar problem.

Thanks

K. Carter Sr.
