Bug description
FYI ocaml-3.05 does not build out of the box with the latest version of
mingw (0.2-2) bundled with cygwin.
The reason is that fpclassify was added to this version of mingw, but,
it was not put into the standard libraries; see
Thanks for the explanation. The problem was reported to us earlier,
but I didn't know about the mingwex library. For the time being, I've
fixed the problem by not calling fpclassify() under Mingw -- the OCaml
runtime contains its own implementation of fpclassify, which is used
when the C library doesn't provide it.
(I'm encountering other errors as well, but don't have time for further
debugging today...)
If you could report them by, say, tomorrow, that would be very useful,
since a 3.06 release is approaching.

To get around this you need to add a -lmingwex flag when linking
ocamlrun.a. It suffices to do
make -f Makefile.nt world BYTECCLIBS=-lmingwex
