hi joseph,
i found your posting, when i was seraching for some info about the
nysterious cygwin error, because i had the same problem after updating cygwin.

then i found another message board, where people had discussed the problem.
here is the solution, or let's say, that's what also worked on my pc (win98),
hope it ll help you.

            the problem was the cygwin1.dll file in windows\system 
            wasn't the correct one... i moved the one in C:\cygwin 
            into system and it works fine except the usual code 
            buggies now. ;)

This is wrong.  DO NOT copy cygwin1.dll to your system directory.

It should exist where the installation puts it.  If you have a cygwin1.dll
in your system directory, it should be deleted.

Please *don't* do this.  There should be only one cygwin1.dll on your 
system and this should be in /usr/bin.  Any others should be found and
removed.  setup.exe does not put a copy of cygwin1.dll in any directory
other than /usr/bin.  There's no reason to move or copy cygwin1.dll 
somewhere else.  If you do, next time you update your installation via
setup.exe, you will end up with 2 (or more - depending on how many 
copies you made) cygwin1.dlls which are incompatible with eachother.
This list can't support questions about problems with your Cygwin 
environment if you don't conform to the configuration setup.exe gives
you.  There are just too many options and too many ways to shoot yourself
in the foot.  While we can't stop you from trying to do so, we vehemently
discourage the practice (of shooting yourself in the foot that is! :-) )

Maybe you should check recent changes in the cinstall source directory...

Yes, Joe. Please remove the extra one and all others except for the one in

Just remember to leave the one in /bin alone!

cygwin-1.3.1-1 gcc/CPP0.exe error. Absolute mystery.

[Joseph Mrozek]

Whenver gcc is invoked in cygwin-1.3.1-1, the following error appears in a
pop-up window: "The CPP0.EXE file is linked to missing export
CYGWIN.DLL:getrlimit.", and the following is given in the console:
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec
`/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-4
/cpp0.exe': Permission denied

I used the setup.exe installer that comes with cygwin. Here is the
setup.log:

I have searched the FAQ and the mailing list archives and I have found

explanation.
