I'm somewhat sceptical that's the fix since the problem is on the drive containing the sources, not the build tree. No, my guess is that Jens installed the eCos patches to gcc 2.95.2 (which include a patch to arm.h) when using cygwin 1.1.1, and then found this problem and *then* updated to cygwin 1.1.2. By that point it was too late - arm.h already had got CRs put in it. So instead, now that Jens is using 1.1.2, he should unpack the original tarball again and reapply the patches. All should then be happy. Jifl -- Red Hat, 35 Cambridge Place, Cambridge, UK. CB2 1NS Tel: +44 (1223) 728762 "Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow." || These opinions are all my own fault
