I have problem building a project under Windows 7 64bit. I already looked similar questions on SO, but didn't found proper solution. When I run:

cmake -v -G "MSYS Makefiles" CMakeLists.txt

it gives me following output:

> -- The C compiler identification is unknown
-- Check for working C compiler: c:/MinGW/bin/gcc.exe
-- Check for working C compiler: c:/MinGW/bin/gcc.exe -- broken
CMake Error at C:/Program Files (x86)/CMake/share/cmake-3.0/Modules/CMakeTestCCo
mpiler.cmake:61 (message):
  The C compiler "c:/MinGW/bin/gcc.exe" is not able to compile a simple test
  program.

  It fails with the following output:

I installed and reinstalled mingw and investigated my path variable, but still have no solution. Any ideas, where I am wrong?

I just found the answer to this: I had another libintl-8.dll in my path.

Do this from the command line:

where libintl-8.dll

Then rename ALL of them except the one in the MinGW tree.

If that fails, then a reinstall of your MinGW tree may be needed. Good luck.

Drop libintl-8.dll in System32/SysWOW64 and it should work fine.

This is a somewhat ignorant guess, but the problem with libintl-8.dll could arise from path issues. Somewhere in your path, you could have an older version of the lib with different entrypoints. Make sure you have the latest version of MinGW and all relevant libraries, and then try moving MinGW\bin to the top of your path variable.

For another example of what appears to be this problem in action, see: MinGW "The procedure entry point libiconv could not be located ..."

The answer in that linked question helped me resolve a similar problem I was having.
