cygcheck cannot load

cygcheck cannot load

[Denis Excoffier]

Hi,

With the last snapshot (2012-10-16), the cygcheck.exe
does not load (return code 127 under tcsh). Microsoft loader (ie
double-click) on it says (i translate from french):
_get_output_format: entry point not found in msvcrt.dll

I recompiled using the sources and the cygcheck.exe produced
works correctly, and nm -go on it says that __get_output_format
is included.

% nm -go cygcheck.exe | grep output
cygcheck.exe:0041aac0 T __get_output_format
% uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 {edited} 1.7.17s(0.262/5/3) 20121016 10:33:03 i686 Cygwin

(the original cygcheck.exe has no symbols).

Hope this helps, before 1.7.17.

Regards,

Denis Excoffier.

Thanks for the report.  It works fine on W7, but I could reproduce it on
XP.  After some debugging it turned out that my build machine had a
somewhat "over-experimental" setup, using mingw32 and mingw64 files in a
motley mix.  I'll make sure that I build the release in a clean
environment.
