Using mingw/msys I get this error :
In file included from ../../include/dosbox.h:22,
from callback.cpp:24:
../../config.h:203:4: #error "sizeof (unsigned char) != 1"
../../config.h:210:4: #error "sizeof (unsigned short) != 2"
../../config.h:223:4: #error "can't find sizeof(type) of 4 bytes!"
../../config.h:233:4: #error "can't find data type of 8 bytes"

and so on. Since gcc 3.4.4 is only release candidate, I'll downgrade again and will see if that fixes it. Could be that I nuked my mingw/msys setup for Dosbox...

Any difference in performance or executable size? Have you done a gcc 3.4.4 build of SDL as well?

performance/file size - no idea (but judging from my previous experiences in compiling Exult, there isn't much difference in file size). But should do a SDL compile.

Found the reason for this problem. On http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435 you can download a snapshot (in the snapshot group of course 😀) for the "new" msys bash. Only after installing that one, I get this error.
