[Magick-bugs] Difficulty compiling ImageMagick-6.3.6 under Cygwin on XP

[L. Van Warren]

I need convert to run under Cygwin.

Tried stock ImageMagick 6.3.0 that loads with cygwin. Doesn't work.

Downloaded ImagMagick-6.3.6.

./configure runs normally until:

configure:4214: $? = 0
configure:4245: gcc -E  conftest.c

configure:4251: $? = 1

Any help is apprecitated.
