Hi,
I'm trying to compile the latest libvirt (0.8.3 ) on windows and the
configure fails to find XDR lib.
I installed the xdr-4.0-mingw2   and configure complains the XDR library
doesn't exist.
Should I get another XDR lib?

The command I run:

$ ./configure --with-esx --without-sasl   --without-avahi
--without-polkit
--without-python   --without-xen   --without-qemu   --without-lxc
--without-o
penvz   --without-libvirtd

the last 10 lines of configure:
checking for mntent.h... no
checking net/ethernet.h usability... no
checking net/ethernet.h presence... no
checking for net/ethernet.h... no
checking linux/magic.h usability... no
checking linux/magic.h presence... no
checking for linux/magic.h... no
checking for xdrmem_create in -lportablexdr... no
checking for library containing xdrmem_create... no
configure: error: Cannot find a XDR library

is there a a guide somewhere in the list for compiling the windows
version on mingw? 

Thanks,
