[Gmsh] configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found

Hi Richard,
 
Thanks for your answer. 
 
First I should say that I have mounted the directory where fltk-config is  
placed with C:/Programme/FEM_GMSH/fltk-1.1.9 /mount_fltk_1 as it is described in 
 the MSYS documentation:
C:/Programme/Dev-Cpp /mingw
C:/Programme/FEM_GMSH/gmshtest1  /mount_gmsh_1
C:/Programme/FEM_GMSH/fltk-1.1.9  /mount_fltk_1
C:/Programme/FEM_GMSH/gsl-1.11 /mount_gsl_1
 
BTW: the original version of fltk was delivered with a file named  
fltk-config.in. I have changed its name to fltk-config. Does this make sense?  I´m not 
sure whether its needed.
 
I have tried it now with:
 
$ ../../mount_gmsh_1/configure  
--with-fltk-prefix=c:/Programme/FEM_GMSH/fltk-1.1.9
 
and the answer is the same error:

configure: error: Could not  find fltk-config. Try --with-fltk-prefix?
 
 
Here some lines out of the config.log file:
...
PATH: .
PATH: /usr/local/bin
PATH: /mingw/bin
PATH: /bin
PATH:  /c/WINDOWS/system32
PATH: /c/WINDOWS
PATH:  /c/WINDOWS/System32/Wbem
PATH: /c/Programme/ATI Technologies/ATI Control  Panel
PATH: /c/Programme/Sybase/SQL Anywhere 7/Win32
PATH: "C
PATH:  /Programme/Symantec/Norton Ghost 2003/"
PATH: /c/Programme/Microsoft SQL  Server/90/Tools/binn/
PATH: /c/PROGRA~1/LEADCO~1
PATH:  /c/PROGRA~1/LEADCO~1/BIN
PATH: /c/Programme/Gimp/GTK20/bin
PATH:  /c/Programme/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/SDK/v2.0/Bin
PATH:  /c/Programme/FEM_Elmer/Elmer5.4/lib
PATH:  /c/Programme/FEM_Elmer/Elmer5.4/bin
...
Why only mingw is included in the path?
 
And more lines:
...
configure:3526: checking for ranlib
configure:3542: found  /mingw/bin/ranlib
configure:3553: result: ranlib
configure:3581: checking  for ar
configure:3599: found /mingw/bin/ar
configure:3611: result:  /mingw/bin/ar
configure:3641: checking for fltk-config
configure:3676:  result: no
configure:3726: error: Could not find fltk-config. Try  --with-fltk-prefix?
...
As you see its no problem to find the exes ar and ranlib in mingw/bin (the  
original directory is mounted to /mingw).
 
 
When I enter:
find ../../mount_fltk_1/fltk-config  -print
../../mount_fltk_1/fltk-config --libs
 
I get this:
$  cct2
../../mount_fltk_1/fltk-config
../../mount_fltk_1/lib/libfltk.a
 
I think that means that the path is okay.
 
Hm, what else can I do?
