regarding gcc 3.3.3's placement of const symbols into rdata which then cannot be properly initialized. This problem seems pretty fundamental. Can anyone tell me whether there has been any followup to this? Is it considered a cygwin problem or a gcc problem? Has it been addressed in 3.4.1? What are developers doing? Going back to 3.3.1?
I ask because I just spent two days trying to compile a number of libraries, and ran into problems at every turn due to this bug.
