[PD-dev] cross-compiling linus-to-windows 64 bit using automake

[Miller Puckette]

I guess it's working fine for you - and I guess you're compiling it
on windows (not cross-compiling form linux, correct)?

I should have mentioned that not only do I get garbage but also it
doesn't work in the first place (no GUI appears) when I compile it.

cheers
