autogen.sh fails in MinGW with

configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables.

The error line in the config.log:
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find crt2.o: No such file or directory

This looks like a problem in your toolchain. Can you compile a simple hello world program via
gcc -o hello-world.exe hello-world.c
?
Comment 2 Kim Lam 2013-08-29 15:14:10 UTC 
Your right, it does seem like a toolchain error. I get the same error with hello-world.
