I think it is normal to have failures building mkgmap - been this way forever on Windows (I always do ant clean before compiling, without doing so, errors are very rare)....

here is how it looks for me on windows (empty lines deleted for better readability in email):

Hi Gerd

Thanks. I should have found this myself, but the tests produce so many
failure messages that I did not notice this additional one.
Or maybe it is not normal to have 16 failures?

No it is not normal - on unix anyway ;) I'm suprised that no one
has complained before, given that most people run on windows.

Its difficult to delete files on Windows compared to Unix.
I'm part way through fixing it now.
