[Clp] configure errors, cannot find BLAS, /bin/sh ./configure failed for Ipopt

By building under windows, do you mean using MSVC++ or GNU under cygwin?

I have mingw32 installed in cygwin. If I do ./configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32, will
that use the ming installed in cygwin or will that look for a separate ming
installation? I presume if I did that I should abandon my current installation and
start from scratch.

I am building an application under cygwin (for now) where I would like to call clp as
a solver. Can I just download a pre-compiled library somewhere that I can link to or
do I have to build it?

I can probably use the pre-compiled binary Clp-1.3.3-win32-msvc8 to do some testing.
