Hello All,
Some little time ago there have been a couple of posts regarding problems building
applications under WinNT which, if memory serves, were similar to the problem I am
now experiencing. I searched the archives but since I don't remember the topic I cannot
find the references.
I have b18 with Sergey's patches, binary mount points, etc..
When I build a multi-source project with gcc and GNUmake makefile, a fairly
complicated one at that, the executable builds. When trying to run it form bash
I get 'permission denied' error even though the permissions are set for full access both
under NT and in bash. When trying to run the same executable from Winnt CMD i get
'invalid windows NT executable' error, with obvious results.
I do remember that this kind of thing was discussed a little while ago. Can some kind soul
point me to the topic, pretty please. As I said, I scanned the archive but without luck.
TIA ...
Cheers ...

I have the answer for the second part
Wolfgang Ocker <weo@recco.de> posted the following mail
About two weeks ago I reported problems when running gnuwin32 compiled
programs under NT (NT refused to start them). I've found a partial solution:
the linker option -S causes the linker to omit the .stab and .stabstr (debug
info) sections from the binary ... and voila, the programs run! NT seems not
to like these sections.
