Are you running Win95 or 98?  I am able to compile it with the Cygwin
package, a sort-of Linux "shell" that will compile and run programs
written and configured for Linux to run under Win9x.  You can check it
out at www.cygwin.com.  For me GNU Chess 5 compiled under Cygwin runs
about 30% faster than the one included in the Winboard package.

Hope this helps.
