In case anybody is interested:
The problem was in the evx_generate.c file. fstat returns a filesize
of the file evx_preamble.cfrag which equals the filesize which I see
in the windows explorer. However it is larger than the c text that
evx_preamble contains. Because of that the evx5.c and evx7.c start
with the contents of evx_preamble followed by some random characters.

I fixed this by subtracting 39 from the filesize that fstat returns. I
admit that it is not a very pretty fix but I have no idea how to find
out the real filesize of evx_preamble. Or is this a bug in cygwin ?

After this new fix I can compile a lot more, until somewhere in the
eval package of the java directory. There I get a lot of errors
starting with this:

gcc -I. -I../include -I/cygdrive/c/j2sdk1.4.2_04/bin//../include
-I/cygdrive/c/j2sdk1.4.2_04/bin//../include/win32 -c pokutil.c -o
pokutil.o
gcc -shared -L../lib -lpoker -o ../lib/libpokerjni.so
org/pokersource/eval/StandardEvalImp.o
org/pokersource/eval/JokerEvalImp.o
org/pokersource/eval/AsianStudEvalImp.o
org/pokersource/enum/EnumerateImp.o jniutil.o pokutil.o
org/pokersource/eval/StandardEvalImp.o(.text+0x1f4):StandardEvalImp.c:
undefined reference to `_nBitsTable'

And from then on a whole lot of other undefined rererences. Does
anyone know what could be the problem now ? Any help would be greatly
appreciated !
