Using MSYS2 (version x86_64-20160205) on Windows 7 64bits, I'm trying to compile corkscrew.
Here is the output:
$ ./configure

configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.
And the content of config.log:
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

I've tested this answer without any success. Or to be more precise, it goes to the next step (which is failing at detecting my system, which is more a corkscrew's config issue I think) randomly...
This is not a rights problem as I have all the rights on that folder and I use my user to execute ./configure.
Any idea?
