I imagine in any situation you have an ELF binary you need to analyse but have no source for it. Reverse-engineering and forensics come to mind.


This is anecdotal, but when I don't floss my teeth hurt.


Probably poor technique. When the oral hygienist flosses my teeth it doesn't hurt at all but I can't replicate the pain free flossing at home.


You _can_ use the GNU Autotools on Windows, though you need a shell installed (and a vaguely sane POSIX environment). CMake does a good job targeting a bunch of environments, including Windows.
