These are some quick notes on how to build hecke.

The build platform I used is: MSYS 1.0.8, MinGW 2.0.0 , on Windows XP.  But any Unix-like build environment should work fine.

I used /c/builds/hecke for my base directory, replace this in what follows with a location that works for you.

First, unpack hecke, gmp, lidia, and ntl in your base directory.

Build gmp:
cd /c/builds/hecke/gmp-4.1.2
./configure CFLAGS=-O2
make


Build Lidia:
. If you'd like to speed up the build (it takes one hour to build LiDIA on a P4 2.4GHz processor) you can remove the three elliptic curves packages from LiDIA -- elliptic curves, elliptic curve order, elliptic curve generation.  They are not needed for Hecke (just remove the corresponding directories under 'src').

cd /c/builds/hecke/LiDIA-2.1.3.wp1
./configure --with-arithmetic=gmp --with-extra-includes=/c/builds/hecke/gmp-4.1.2 --with-extra-libs=/c/builds/hecke/gmp-4.1.2/.libs
make


Build NTL:
cd /c/builds/hecke/NTL-5.3.1
cd src
./configure NTL_STD_CXX=on NTL_GMP_LIP=on GMP_INCDIR=-I/c/builds/gmp-4.1.2 GMP_LIBDIR=-L/c/builds/gmp-4.1.2/.libs WIZARD=off
make
mv ntl.a libntl.a


Finally build Hecke:
. edit Hecke's makefile, set LIDIADIR, GMPDIR, and NTLDIR for your setup.
. If compiling under UNIX, remove ".exe" in the makefile.

cd /c/builds/hecke/hecke
make hecke
