		+	This is how I got Nethack to compile on my Linux Mint system, which is based on Ubuntu

		+
		+	After building the source, I tried executing nethack as a non-root user. It couldn't write to the records or open a system file.
		+	I had to edit hints/linux.
		+	I had to define COMPRESS and COMPRESS_EXTENSION becuse it uses a different gzip.
		+	I had to define the user "games" and group "games" and set the chmod permission octets for folders and files.
		+	I also changed the paths where the game would be installed.
		+	Then I had to add my user to the games group and reboot.

		+	== Windows 7 MinGW compile failure ==
		+
		+	Following the directions in the Install.NT:
		+
		+	1. It almost goes without saying that you should make sure that your
		+	tools are set up and running correctly. That includes ensuring that
		+	all the necessary environment variables for the compiler environment
		+	are set correctly. (Examples: For the Microsoft compiler by
		+	executing vcvars32.bat, which is probably in the bin directory of
		+	your compilers directory tree. For the Borland Makefile, you can
		+	simply invoke the Make utility from the Makefile's directory (For
		+	the standard Borland compiler installation you can just use the
		+	explicit path "c:\borland\bcc55\bin\make /f Makefile.bcc". For the
		+	GCC Makefile, add <mingw>\bin to your path, where <mingw> is your
		+	MinGW root directory.)
		+
		+	I did install MinGW but evidently there was a lot I missed. I checked it over again and found out there was a bunch of catalogs and stuff and so I just installed everything, and when I updated the catalog again I found nothing left that wasn't installed.
		+
		+	I just want to try and compile it before I dink around with the source code so I skipped ahead to step 5 (after running the NHSetup.bat in the /sys/winnt directory):
		+
		+	5. Now that everything is set up, change your current directory to src.
		+
		+	And I went with...
		+
		+	For GCC:
		+	mingw32-make -f Makefile.gcc install
		+
		+	Just for no reason I tried it without the install parameter and it did a lot of things but eventually I ended up right back where I am now. When I ran it with the install parameter and I get this:
		+
		+	C:\nethack-3.4.3\src>mingw32-make -f Makefile.gcc install
		+	creating directory o
		+	gcc -c -mms-bitfields -I../include -g -DWIN32CON -oo/makedefs.o ../util/makedefs.c
		+	gcc -c -mms-bitfields -I../include -g -DWIN32CON -DDLB -oo/monst.o ../src/monst.c
		+	gcc -c -mms-bitfields -I../include -g -DWIN32CON -DDLB -oo/objects.o ../src/objects.c
		+	..\util\makedefs -v
		+	Makefile.gcc:655: recipe for target '../include/date.h' failed
		+	mingw32-make: *** [../include/date.h] Error -1073741819
