Why not use cygwin make, and then not have to worry about it all? And if you really like the name gmake, do 'ln /bin/make /bin/gmake'. This list can't really support third-party tools when a cygwin solution already exists; ask the distributor of your gmake why it isn't working with cygwin. Also, including the output of 'cygcheck -svr' as a text attachment, as suggested here, would have been helpful: > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
