Hi Angelo, well, after a somewhat bumpy start on the Cygwin list, I did get the information I needed. It turned out that the directories and files I had created under Windows had the permission 000 according to Cygwin, but I could still read the files and enter the directories, because the

Hi Angelo, well, the DOS-style path only caused a warning in the configure step, so I assumed it was okay. It was not apparently. Building out-of-source is an instruction I must have missed. So, I tried again. The problem I reported before has gone, but I still get a file permission problem

Hi Angelo, I found a reference to this sort of problems in the Cygwin FAQs, but this turned out to be a dead-end too. So I thought, I'd try MinGW/MSYS instead. It started off fairly well, however: - For some reason the gcc compiler did not like the /d/gcc-src/... path (from $srcdir) - it could
