Description:
This is a split from BUG#2471.

I did read the manual.
Where is your build picking up ML.EXE from for VC++ 6.0 ?

The Visual C++ 6.0 Enterprise Edition doesn't install ML.EXE.

Tried to build using Visual C++ 6.0 Enterprise Edition w/ SP5
     ML.EXE (Assembler) is not found.

4.0.17 -- mysql-4.0.17-win-src.zip

How to repeat:
Try to build MySQL-4.0.17 from source with VC++ 6.0

Did you install the Macro Assembler with your SP? It's listed as a pre-requesite in the manual: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Windows_source_build.html

I assume that you got the Microsoft Macro Assembler compiler
and compiled the stuff with VC++ 6.0. Otherwise please let
me know if the problem continues.
