[Gmsh] Gmsh under Cygwin

[sserebrinsky at gmail.com]

Hi Christophe,

I have just compiled gmsh with the following configuration

 ./configure --disable-metis --disable-gui

under Cygwin. It turned out that the final linking step threw a number of

  /cygdrive/ ........ /gmsh-2.3.1/Common/GmshSocket.h:69: undefined
reference to `XXXXXXXXXXXX'

errors, where ........ was substituted for my own long path, and
XXXXXXXXXXXX was substituted for symbols of the form _<some
name>@<some number>

Googling a little bit, I tried adding  -lws2_32 to the linking
command, and it linked with no problem. I did not try the resulting
gmsh yet, though.

I just wanted to let you know that perhaps there is something to touch
in the configure.in, or some other file.

Regards,

Santiago
