What I don't get is why when I built 3.3.3 using 'make' and then 'make install' (it failed to do 'make bootstrap') it relied on the fact that cygwin was installed in the first place. Why then is that, does it require some unix based functionality that only cygwin provides to a windows pc? > -

'man patch'. But according to Chris, who knows more about Cygwin's gcc than I do, -mno-cygwin should be configurable with vanilla gcc sources. So, if you're having difficulty with your locally built gcc/g++, you'll need to figure out what's different in your environment. Larry At 03:58 PM 3

Thanks I tried building 3.3.3 using 3.3.1, which didn't work when doing 'make bootstrap'. But then I did a successful 'make bootstrap' of 3.3.2 using 3.3.1. The bootstrapped 3.3.2 works fine, and claims to have been compiled by itself not 3.3.1. Even -mno-cygwin works fine on it. So I'm now happy,
