Which BCP code are you trying to compile?

I just checked out the tar ball from

http://www.coin-or.org/download/source/Bcp/

and it compiles fine under Cygwin (with make3.80). 
However, 'make test' fails due to changes
in CoinUtils that are not reflected in Bcp. This has nothing to do with
Cygwin and it also fails under Linux. But the example BAC compiles
and runs fine (both under Cygwin and Linux).

The code in Bcp/trunk is for developers and should not be checked out by 
users. My guess is that your problem with Cgl comes from checking out 
Bcp/trunk.

The code from Bcp/stable/1.0 should compile, but I did not check.

Instructions (updated 30 minutes ago) for download and installation
are available from the BCP Trac page:
