 Hi --- I have tried configuring IPOPT prior to compilation in cygwin
 with a couple different methods per the website, but the
 configuration failed with both methods.  The message I receive is
 "linking to fortran from C fails" followed by configure: error:
 /bin/sh '../../../ThirdParty/Blas/configure' failed for
 ThirdParty/Blas.  The problem in the .log file may be caused by not
 finding the -gfortranbegin library.

 I am using the mumps solver and following configure commands from a
 build directory "../configure" and "../configure
 --with-mumps-dir="../ThirdParty/Mumps/MUMPS". I configured cygwin to
 have all compilers, make, and subversion.  The first method I
 download all third party software from the netlib websites but the
 configure script did not recognize Blas.  The second method I used
 wget with cygwin and configure recognized Blas, Lapack, ASL, and
 Mumps.

 I recognize this might be the problem referred to in the installation
 guide about linking a library to C or FORTRAN, but I did not think
 that error should halt configuration.  The first config.log file is
 from the build/Blas directory and other is from build.  I appreciate
 any advice you can provide.

 Ben
