*sigh*

And what is in 3.12, which is apparently the current version?
Sorry that was implied. sys/time.h did not change between 3.10 and 3.12.
There is no #define to remove the declaration.

In cvs the file is marked as dead and gives a reference to cygwin's
w32api.
Maybe the answer is to simply note that the mingw-runtime binary from
sourceforge above 3.9 has a broken sys/time.h (it is not the file from
cygwin but the dead one from cvs).

I think that soudns reasonable. Something for the mingw FAQ. Care to
provide bruce with a patch?


No, that means that we can't build with currently released Mingw, AIUI. I think the solution is probably to rename our replacement gettimeofday and add a #define to translate the calls. That's pretty much what we've done in other cases, and has seemed to be a more robust strategy than supplying replacements for standard library routines with routines of the same name.
