I’m trying to install the narray package found here:

[http://codeforpeople.com/lib/ruby/rb-gsl-win/](http://codeforpeople.com/lib/ruby/rb-gsl-win/)

And when I unzipped it I gather that it hasn’t been precompiled. Okay.  
So I ruby the extconf.rb and then try to make (in Cygwin, as per  
instructions) and it says:  
Makefile:104: \*\*\* target pattern contains no `%'. Stop.

Would anybody be able to help me get this package installed on windows?

Thanks,

Andrew
