The patch of mine is not required once I upgraded from mingw-runtime-{old?}
to mingw-runtime-3.12.

I have also build a non-ansi version and compiled ACL2.  The regression 
tests ran for a while overnight then failed in books/quadratic-reciprocities.
I think this is a simple dependency problem in the Makefile.  Need to check.
