Can you provide a listing of all the errors you are getting as a text file
attachment?  Seeing what the errors are would help.

Also a side note is make sure you are building from
{toolshedfolder}/build/unix
I have seen in the past people using cygwin and use the windows build
scripts when they should be using the unix ones.

Another thing is look at the errors and see if it can't find lib files.
 You may not have a compiler required file(s) that might be needed to build
toolshed.

Well I myself now use Mint14 and my Raspberry Pi for my toolshed stuff.  I
am finding it is a lot easier for me to work with than windows now.  At
least for me :D
