What makes me think it uses teh wrong compiler is the following error :

Making all for subproject Additions...z
 Compiling file GSCategories.m ...
GSCategories.m: In function `-[NSData(GSCategories)
initWithHexadecimalRepresentation:]':
GSCategories.m:310: warning: subscript has type `char'
GSCategories.m: At top level:
GSCategories.m:945: error: conflicting types for 'strerror_r'
/usr/include/string.h:69: error: previous declaration of 'strerror_r' was
here
GSCategories.m:945: error: conflicting types for 'strerror_r'
/usr/include/string.h:69: error: previous declaration of 'strerror_r' was
here

it seems to search for include in /usr/include while it should be in
/opt/mingw32ce/arm-mingw32ce/include


Last thing how does makefile works because usually when I enter make
command,
make file is called and processed but here this is not the case since
Makefile is almost empty.
So how does it work ?
