flac dev - Sep 2007 - Patches for building of flac 1.2.1

Hello,

We use two different patches to build flac.

The first one is a patch that detects correctly ranlib, ac, strip when 
you cross-compile. We especially use the patch when compiling for
Windows under GNU/Linux.
http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/browser/trunk/extras/contrib/src/Patches/flac-cross.patch

The other one fixes an issue when compiling for Windows under Cygwin,
 that can't find SIZE_T_MAX.
The patch is attached to that mail.

I hope that those patches might help some people.

Best Regards,

For the record, I built flac 1.2.1 for Cygwin without any problems. The 
only patches required where to add "-no-undefined" in a few places to 
get the DLLs to build correctly.

I maintain the flac package for Cygwin. If you want to see my build 
script, install the flac source using Cygwin's setup.exe.
