Hi,

I tried to compile Gambit 4.6.0 for the iPhone with iOS4.1 and after many different tries I was unsuccessful. I tried to follow James Long instructions, I tried to apply Alex Quieroz patch, I tried with earlier versions of Gambit. It always fails for me.

I pasted parts of a sample compile session below. It seems that configure doesn't work as expected since make runs it again. If somebody on this list could compile the latest Gambit for Simulator and iOS and make it available somewhere it would be greatly appreciated. I offer myself to host those files if needed.

Thank you, Francois Magnan
