Although it isn't a "CE version of cygwin", You may want to try "Pocket GCC" http://mifki.ru/pocketgcc/ I haven't tried it yet myself. A good place to look for this kind of information may be the crossgcc mailing list archives :) -Abe -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscrib

In uw-imap/c-client, the functionality of flock is emulated. Take a look in the osdep/unix directory of the uw-imap sources. As for the linker errors, there are a couple of different things to check. How are you linking libc-client? If you are using -L and -l, try instead to explicitly put /lib
