Thanks Andrew, I appreciate that. It is the first unbugged output I have seen.
I did a bit more digging, and it seems the bug is found in my Windows install and simply manifests in cygwin; since I can jam without cygwin. Most cygwin users do not have the bug, but if a user sees errors related to the ones I have posted about, you can test to see if you have this bug using the tests I have provided in the posts. I will post if I find a solution. Unless anyone has any better suggestions, my next contemplated move is reinstalling WIN 2000. I love it when a proprietary system breaks. Until then, I can not build ImageMagick or other big things. http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-03/msg01788.html --- Andrew Inggs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Mike W. wrote: > > Thanks.
