After spending weeks building my own static-based distro (also based on nuwen) I then discover your work.
That is so unfair. :-)

For some reason I insist on doing this on my single-core P4 (running configure in MSYS takes forever) instead of cross-compiling on the multi-core monster.
All that fighting and patching to get some things working. Tiring, taxing, frustrating, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Everything was built against gcc 4.8.0 just before I find that nuwen upped to 4.8.1. I'm not about to rebuild anything but if I decide to start over I'll use your distro and then rebuild those items and libs that you don't have.

Then I can concentrate on re-doing the apps like lynx (w/slang), most, less, jed, nano, vile, zsh, etc.

I must say you've done a great job.

Sidebar: Have you tried to use diff 3.2 or 3.3 to create patch files? Using either one of those produces a patch file with a single diff (the first it finds).
I can't figure out why. MSYS and gnuwin32 diff (v2.8.x) do what's expected.

@Unknown: thanks for the comment. I still use diff 2. diff 3 didn't work and I had no time to investigate :-/
