OK, I have now run the setup tool, and it had some issues--it doesn't stop
when it runs into problems, is the main thing, so it just zooms to the end
making you watch popups which may or may not tell you what's going on.
After it finished and nothing was done, I saw that it had failed to
download xulrunner, so I ran 'configure' by hand and pointed it at the
other installation. 'Configure' then finished, but then 'make' failed
exactly the same way it ahd before.

So, I went ahead and re-ran the setup tool telling it not to bother with
xulrunner/opencell. It failed again, once more not telling me why. So, I
ran 'configure' by hand, and I think it got further than it had the last
time-at the very least, the 'omniidl' bits worked fine. However, I then
got this error:

creating librdf.la

make[1]: *** [libcellml.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/build/cellml-api'

Once again, the file in question is actually there
(/cygdrive/c/build/cellml-api/.libs/libcellmlonly_la-CellMLEvents.obj but
it's not being pointed to in the right way... somehow.
