[Bioc-devel] Windows x64 linking problem

Hi,

Short story: fixed.

Or, as Jerry Pournelle (formerly Byte magazine, does anyone remember ?!)
would put it: I learned more about Win64 linking than I ever wanted 
to know...

The change is that "mingw-w64 toolchain is moving towards the MSVC
convention of not using leading underscores on symbols" 
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/~ripley/Win64/W64porting.html

So the precompiled libnetCDF and zlib had to be compiled 
with the compiler flag -fno-leading-underscore,
and I placed the notes on the XCMS wiki:

Yours,
Steffen
