Hey all,
IOhannes asked on #dataflow about the winxp autobuild machine:

I thought I'd answer here so it's in the archives. When you log into
the winxp machine, you are logging into the Cygwin environment. Pd
is built in the MinGW/MSYS environment. It is a limited shell, but
still useful for interactive work, and you need to use it to
reproduce the Pd auto-builds.
I created a shell script /usr/local/bin/msys to make it easier to
start up MSYS. Just type 'msys' from Cygwin, and it'll start the
MSYS shell.
