I just tried to compile this file (without my patch) on Cygwin and it works fine without any warning or error: $ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 4.5.3 $ cygcheck -c gcc4 Cygwin Package Information Package Version Status gcc4 4.5.3-3 OK Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat -- 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
