I was looking for a non commercial compiler, paying for a site to run my
MUD off of is enough. If I had enough money to get a expensive compiler, I
would take up crack instead of MUDding.

That was probably me trying to explain what steps I had taken so far. But
if not, where can I get that? I love cygwin32.

Bla! Pre compiled? Eww! I can get a precompiled Circle anywhere, but I hate
stock MUDs.

And this is with what compiler? cygwin32 or VC5?

Well, if you guys want to send me VC5, that would be cool. Otherwise I am
stuck trying to use public domain compilers, like cygwin32. I will try
#define ing HAVE_SYS_STAT_H in my conf.h, see if that does anything. Although
it should be noted by problem is not compiling, but running.
