When trying to compile for windows on linux, I was encountering a problem about a missing library, turns out I needed a different name for the static library. Note that in a build.rs cfg(target-os) will actually be the host os, because the build script is running on the host os, so to properly detect the case of cross compilation, I have used the cargo environment variable CARGO_CFG_TARGET_OS.
Additionally, I was getting some spurious warnings out of bindgen about unnecessary transmutes. I think this will be fixed in a future version of bindgen, but for now I have simply silenced the warning.
Also I updated bindgen to the latest version because I think that's a chore which is probably good to do. If not, I will revert the change if need be, but everything seems to work on the newer version!
Thanks,
Aaron.
