Only the gcc which comes with cygwin has all the cygwin patches applied. Since you don't specify any requirements which would move you toward a newer version, such as the more modern C++ library, or P4 support, you may not have a good reason for changing. Attempting to build and install gcc without upgrading your OS carries additional risk. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gallip William C DLDN" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2001 10:18 AM Subject: New user question
