For once, it's a nice, simple, small patch <g>. Ping? FWIW, I plan to expand on the [Wrapper executables for programs] documentation after (assuming) the cross-compile stuff goes in. Some of that info will be taken from here: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-01/msg00851.html The interesting bits start with "But I worry that things", although there is one misconception; at the time I thought that current gcc used "old" libtool (2007-03-18). It doesn't -- it uses 2009-09-26). However, the description of why we use a wrapper exe, and why we eliminated the wrapper script entirely, and why *WE* have to worry about converting paths manually from one format to another are all good. -- Chuck
