Description

I tried to compile GDAL with MinGW on Windwows using an external qhull library and it gave compilation errors in a few source files. I did not save the compile log to show you the error messages, sorry.

What I know for sure is that qhull has a header file called io.h, which is also distributed as part of mingw. In my case, it is located under <prefix>/x86_64-w64-mingw32/include, for 64-bit, and <prefix>/i686-w64-mingw32/include, for 32-bit).

This effectively makes the compilation fail, as the io.h file from qhull does not define some symbols needed by GDAL.
