This _may_ be due to differences in how one system file includes another. You could run the following on both Cygwin and Linux and try to figure out the differences: gcc -E ...... > cmdargs.i gcc -H ..... 2> cmdargs.include-tree Csaba -- GCS a+ e++ d- C++ ULS$ L+$ !E- W++ P+++$ w++$ tv+ b++ DI D++ 5++ The Tao of math: The numbers you can count are not the real numbers.
