test version of gcc-2.95.2-8 available

[Christopher Faylor]

I've uploaded a new version of gcc to sources.redhat.com.  It should
be on mirrors soon.

I've YA changed the specs file with regard to -mwin32 and mingw.
-mno-cygwin defaults to -mwin32 automatically, now.  -mno-cygwin should
also default to using msvcrt automatically, matching the latest version
of mingw, I hope.

As before, you need to specify -mwin32 if you want to use Windows
defines and include files when compiling under Cygwin.  A discussion
about the best way to detect this situation has recently taken place in
the cygwin and autoconf mailing lists.

I've also modified this version so that /usr/local/include is searched
before /usr/include for cygwin and /usr/local/include/mingw is searched
before /usr/include/mingw for -mno-cygwin.  Both paths are considered
"system include directories".

Please check this out and if you have problems please post them here.

Did you add "--dll-search-prefix=cyg" to the spec file for cygwin
linking ?

Um, no.  That's a function of the linker, isn't it?

It's in the current linker which was "released" on 21 Dec 2000; that is,
for more than three months.  We were just waiting for the next gcc
release to put the switch into the specs.  But then -7 had problems, and
there were delays...

It's not really a big deal; I'd just rather that the switch was included
or not based on a *choice* rather than forgetfulness.

First try:

checking whether the C compiler (gcc -mwin32  -s) works... no

Second try:

checking whether the C compiler (gcc -DNCURSES_STATIC -DSTATIC -s) works... yes

test version of gcc-2.95.2-9 will soon be available

[Christopher Faylor]

I will upload a new version of gcc in an hour or so.  It will have
--dll-search-prefix=cyg added to the (I hope) appropriate place and
I will fix my boneheaded problem with -mwin32.  I can't believe that
I didn't check that.

...or actually I can.  I've been having system problems that make it
very hard for me to do work on my NT system.  I think I solved them
yesterday so I won't be able to use that excuse again.

Done.  Soon on a mirror near you.
