I'd been seeing two problems with 3.5.5-1 in OCaml repeatably failing: - mingw-w64 gcc 12.4.0-1 failing at https://ci.appveyor.com/project/dra27/ocaml/builds/51332994?fullLog=true and https://ci.appveyor.com/project/dra27/ocaml/builds/51333141?fullLog=true - gcc 12.4.0-3 failing at https://github.com/dra27/ocaml/actions/runs/12796669773/job/35676846151?pr=180 - gcc 12.4.0-3 failing at https://github.com/dra27/ocaml/actions/runs/12796669773/job/35676845712?pr=180 I had tried this on 8 Jan, and they were still failing with the 19 Dec 3.6.0 snapshot, but I'm afraid I hadn't had a chance to turn them into any kind of helpful report (in particular, I hadn't managed to reproduce the mingw-w64 outside of CI). However, I tried 3.6.0-0.320.g1e6a3b39f1c6 in https://github.com/dra27/ocaml/pull/180 and both those issues appear to be resolved, thank you! (the test which is still failing is not to do with Cygwin!) > I want to take the opportunity to emphasize that in general cygwin is very > stable and such issues are rare I'd like to echo this as well. Also, since setup acquired the ability to specify versions, and the older releases hang around for a while, when these things do happen it's trivial to put CI workarounds like https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/pull/13718 in place. Thanks for the work you all do on Cygwin!
