MinGW-w64 Port Compilation from Source make doesn't work

Did you start from a completely clean tree? If not, I would do git clean -fdx and try again. Otherwise, you can investigate by looking at what is causing the problem in lines 1762, ..., 2637 of runtime/prims.c.

Actually I didn't clone the repo using git but instead downloaded and unzipped the archive file... Regarding the prims.c file, I must say I'm completly clueless about this error message...

Perhaps post it somewhere then?

The error message in question is the one I posted in my first post... I tried to manually fix the error by replacing every :

   "caml_thing
",
   "caml_other_thing
",
...

by :

   "caml_thing",
   "caml_other_thing",
...

in the file runtime/prims.c
But even though it seemed to work fine, running make raises a new error :

LINKC ocamldebug.exe
File "none", line 1:
Error: Error while linking ../stdlib\stdlib.cma(Stdlib):
The external function `caml_ml_input' is not available

I was suggesting to post the whoce C file, not just the error message.

The first issue about the malformed runtime/prims.c file is fixed by #13080.
