Thanks for reporting this problem.  I always wanted to try compiling
POV-Ray with msys but never managed to find some time for it...

	The libtiff library always caused me trouble in rewritting the build
system, especially when dealing with cygwin support.  I'm not surprised that
it now fails with msys.  Libtiff should normally compile ../port/getopt.c
in this environment, but seems it either does not or something is screwed up.
	I'll try to solve the problem this week-end (no guaranty...)

	- NC
