I'm not a guru for the Windows side of things.  Warren wrote the windows
build scripts and will be able to help you there.

For unix, if you're building from svn, you'll need to run all the autoconf
tools.  There is a 'bootstrap' script to make that easy.  So far I haven't
had any trouble with the autoconf side of things.

To specify a different compiler, I use a command line like this (assuming
I've built gcc-4.0.1 and installed it in /home/source5/rootdir-gcc401):

	./configure --prefix=/usr/local \
		CC=/home/source5/rootdir-gcc401/bin/gcc \
		CPP=/home/source5/rootdir-gcc401/bin/cpp \
		CXX=/home/source5/rootdir-gcc401/bin/g++ \
		CXXCPP=/home/source5/rootdir-gcc401/bin/cpp

I can use a compiler built in any old home directory using this.  To run the
results using a new compiler like gcc-4.0.1 when my system compiler is
gcc-3.3.6, I have to do:

	export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/source5/rootdir-gcc401/lib

Hope that helps,
