ambiguous overload for operator [] on Cygwin_X86-64

ambiguous overload for operator [] on Cygwin_X86-64

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Hello

I tried to build wxWidgets-3.0.0 on Cygwin.
For Cygwin x86, the build was successful.

However, on Cygwin x86_64, the build failed at compling a cpp source file (src/common/appbase.cpp).

./include/wx/filename.h: In static member function 'static wxUniChar wxFileName::GetPathSeparator(wxPathFormat)':
./include/wx/filename.h:473:43: error: ambiguous overload for 'operator[]' (operand types are 'wxString' and 'unsigned int')
         { return GetPathSeparators(format)[0u]; }

The code "(format)[0u]" seemed to be accepted g++-4.8.2 on Cygwin x86_64.
What the difference of g++ between that of  Cygwin x86 and that of Cygwin x86_64?

Regards

Tatsuro

wxWidgets requires several patches to build and/or run correctly on 
Cygwin/X.  I haven't looked at 3.0 yet, but for 2.8 this issue is fixed 
in my 2.8.12-cygwin64.patch:

With your patch, I could build WxGTK-2.8.12.  I can build gnuplot with the wxt terminal.
That is really I want to execute. 

Thanks a lot!
