Hello, As Max said, I reinstalled a full clean Cygwin distro (I've noticed that gcc is provided as release 3.2, and not 2.95 anymore, which could change things). Following the instruction on http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html, I got a copy of the setup source and followed the instruction for configuring the hole thing, compiled it and... it got built without problem !!!
So, it was a mistake to try to handle cygwin-packets (eg gcc-mingw-3.2-20020817-1.tar.bz2) without using the setup program. Maybe it's a bad habit I've got, since I use to work on a GNU/Linux box... Thanks a lot to everyone who's tried to help me, and I hope that some day, I'll be skilled enough to help another newbee like me ;-) Yann Crausaz ----------------------------------------------- Yann Crausaz EIVD - University of Applied Sciences of Western Switzerland Route de Cheseaux 1 1400 Yverdon-les-Bains Switzerland mailto:yann.crausaz@;eivd.ch mailto:yann_crausaz@;bluemail.ch -----------------------------------------------
