You should be able to tell from config.log what GMP's configure tried to use as the compiler. GCC is capable of being compiled with an old compiler and that applies equally to creating a native compiler or a cross compiler. My best guess is that this problem is not a Cygwin problem. I have had that same error message from configure scripts run under Linux, attempting to cross-compile various open-source libraries, and it comes down to some over-looked detail in the configure arguments that impact how the script finds the compiler to use. Possibly a good question for Stack Overflow. -- 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
