This works.

Now I get this instead:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I. -I./.. -I./../include
-I../../common -I../../common/aicore -I../../intl -I./../agents

Your enums WS_* and ERROR conflict with Windows stuff, and must be
renamed. Once I did this, using some sed and bash magic, I got further.
(ERROR isn't even used anywhere as far as I could see.)

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I. -I./.. -I./../include

Then it compiles successfully.

I had to rename libjpeg.dll to jpeg-62.dll for some really odd reason I
can't figure out.

Then it says this when I try to run it:

$ client/civclient.exe
2: Using Video Output: windib
0: Couldn't find stdfont.ttf file. Please link/copy/move anyunicode ttf
font to data dir as stdfont.ttf

Why isn't a ttf font shipped with freeciv? There are free ones available
nowadays. Adding a ttf font, I get this:

$ client/civclient.exe
2: Using Video Output: windib
...
0: Your current tileset don't contains GUI theme graphic
Please use other tileset with GUI graphic pack (use -t tileset options)
If you don't have any tileset with SDLClient GUI theme then go to freeciv
(ftp.freeciv.org/pub/freeciv/incoming) ftp side and download DELUXE
tileset theme

Hmmm... This is not good. All clients should work with all tilesets. What
are your plans for solving this problem? Ok, I download the deluxe
tileset. Now it starts.

1: warning: already have a sprite for cd.occupied

The chat window leaves streaks behind when I move it. The nation dialog
pops up underneath the chat window and becomes blended, but I can still
use it. The mapview also becomes blended. I can move a unit around, but it
quickly crashes.

Trying to rerun with gdb, it crashes on trying to open join server dialog:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00428ab5 in popup_join_game_callback (pWidget=0x1f524a0) at
connectdlg.c:526
526       area->x = (pUser->dst->w - 400)/ 2;

I can't get past this point with gdb. Without gdb I can successfully get
into the game, but it crashes once I try to select a unit or do much of
anything. Can't be more helpful without gdb. As long as I don't try to
touch the chat window, the all-other-windows-become-blended problem
described above does not happen, though.

I hope this is helpful.
