Right. This isn't a cygdrive issue so I wouldn't expect to see any
significant change by altering the mount option here.
Clearly, fhandler::dup() is getting an invalid handle ('net helpmsg 6'
tells you that). Given that the handle is 0, I think it's clear that
this complaint is valid. Beyond that though, you're going to need to
dig a little deeper to find the root of the problem. The issue is
internal, which would require debugging to find the cause and correct
it. If you can, debugging Cygwin via gdb would be the best way to go.
Alternatively, if you can't do that, calling gcc indirectly through
strace in your IDE environment would provide some trace information
that might help you or others better understand the problem.
Good luck,
