I could rebuild it (posted something on it this week) whith djgpp2.0, by 
splitting one library into .o files. However, when you try to run the 
executable, it something crashes on FPU exceptions [ballbox1.pov](but it 
also works ok for some simple scenes [basicvue.pov]). The povray-team is 
aware of the problem, which (according to them) never happen with djgpp 
1.1x compiled versions.

Also, Scott Perry told me he was able to compile the unix version with 
djgpp, and did not seem to have had this bug...
