Good day to everyone here.
I have been looking around for a good free engine, since I'm getting tired of spending too much time writing everything from scratch, so I decided to give Ogre a try. I grabbed the release candidate 1, along with the MinGW dependencies file from this site, and tried to build it, but I haven't been having much luck compiling the thing.
Using mingw from msys, I run ./configure (no problems) then make. The build works until it tries to create OgreMain/src/.libs/libOgreMain-4.dll, whereupon it generates a slew of errors. (mostly unresolved symbols and gxx-personality stuff).
Here are the first few lines from the error stream. I won't provide the whole list because it's 6MB long.

If it helps, I have the following things packages installed:
GCC 3.4.2 (MinGW)
MSYS 1.0.10
SDL 1.2.7
pkgconfig 0.15
Am I doing anything wrong? Any advice on how to build Ogre? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
