I have forgotten something important: on Windows (at least using MSYS / MinGW)
you can use pkg-config to compile and link your program against mpatrol. In that
case, mpatrol will be statically linked to your program (it has been reported
that there are problems when using mpatrol dll on Windows and i have also
experienced that).

On linux, pkg-config can also be used, but mpatrol will not be statically linked
to your program and mpatrol shared lib will be used

add --without-x) , but you may have some problems when compiling it.
