Thanks. ./configure -C --disable-shared --host=i686-pc-mingw32 --build=i686-pc-cygwin CC="gcc-3 -mno-cygwin" CXX="g++-3 -mno-cygwin" and the following 'make' seem to work fine. I sort of assumed it was that, but thought it was best to clarify first. Is it worth updating the README to clarify this, or are you expecting the -mno-cygwin option to be in a later release of gcc? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
