[developers] ACE on Ubuntu on Windows

[Guy Emerson]

I used the precompiled binary and grammar - I didn't realise that librepp
was only for compiling from source.

Running gdb, I get:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007fffdec22300 in ?? ()
(gdb) backtrace

If I try to compile the ERG image (using the precompiled binary), I also
get a seg fault:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

(gdb) backtrace

If I try to compile ACE from source, without any changes, there is an error
that itsdb.h is not found.

If I try to compile ACE after commenting out the two lines in the Makefile
for itsdb, there is an error that capi_printf is not defined in itsdb.o.

If I also remove itsdb.o from the Makefile, many things are undefined.



As I'm not a C developer, I have very little sense about how easy this
would be to debug or to fix...  I'm quite happy to be told this is not
worth the effort!
