modifications allowing for brass and chert to compile on SFU Interix 3.5 (modified)
[code change not performance critical]

/xapian-core-1.2.21/backends/brass/brass_check.cc
/xapian-core-1.2.21/backends/chert/chert_check.cc

 #include <climits>
+
+#include "str.h"

 	out << "base" << (char)B.base_letter
 	    << " blocksize=" << B.block_size / 1024 << "K"
-	       " items=" << B.item_count
+	    << " items=" << str(B.item_count)

it's been suggested that (absent the above) gcc-3.4.2 might be a minimum version to compile the 1.2.x series brass & chert [on certain platforms, notably Interix], and gcc-4.2 for the 1.3.x series (owing to the dependency on C++11 support), but that on the latter probably realistically something newer

some earlier cited code changes from my other posts

test results (without network access).

If different output (to the below) would be obtained via an SFU 6.0
(Vista Ultimate) or 6.1 (Windows 7 Ultimate) compile I don't know.
