Subject: "collect2.exe has stopped working"
I have Vista and I'm trying to compile _anything_ with
gcc 3.4.4 All I get is
"collect2.exe has stopped working"
Vista breaks MinGW - and I think that's the issue you're facing here.
Try upgrading to 3.4.5. Then unpack
http://dessent.net/tmp/gcc-vista-3.4.5-20060117-1.tar.gz into your MinGW
root directory. (That will overwrite the existing "problem" files.)
I don't know that it's necessary to do the upgrade - but, since the patched
files in the (above) tarball have been built for 3.4.5, it's probably the
safest way to approach the problem.
Cheers,
Rob
