I came across this as I completely started from scratch creating a build environment [*]  ( as I managed to bork my windows xp installation ) Attached is a patch, probably there is a better way to do this but I don't really have a clue about autoconf/configure type stuff and this fix was the easiest for me. It would be great to get this into 3.5 branch and this is what we specifically point windows people to ( on the list and irc anyway ). Note: I didn't attach the generated ( but still under git ) configure a my autoconf is 1.68 and the previous version used to produce configure was 1.62. I guess it's not so bad I shouldn't push to master anyway right? Noel [*] btw this was a great opportunity to check out the instructions at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Windows_Build_Dependencies">http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Windows_Build_Dependencies</a> which I found to be spot on.
