Description Michal Benes 2005-09-13 09:41:45 UTC 
Regexp.h is not a part of libc which comes with MinGW. Since subparse depends on
this library, it should be checked whether this library exists in the system
(alternatively, subparse can be disabled in mingw).

Sidenote:
I was trying to get and compile regexp from GNU ftp archive. However, I was not
able to compile it as standalone DLL (this is surely lack of my Windows skills).
So this not a matter of simple make; make install

May be, disabling subparse is the best option for now. It can be done the same
way as in the proposed patch to bug #316166
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316166
Surely, there are better solutions but we want to get GStreamer bildable on
Windows "out of the box" soon to attract more develepers.

This do not seem to be a problem with our latest builds.
