The version of gcc that comes with Gygwin or MinGW download is 3.4.2 or 3.4.4, which is pretty old. I'm assuming these are latest available binaries for these platforms? Turning to source distributions the latest info for Cygwin suggests a build attempt has been made for 4.3.1, but there are lots of failures. I can't see anything for the MinGW platform. Is this right? Is there really no recent version of gcc that compiles under any windows platform? Thanks, Rob.
