cross-compiler linux->cygwin32

cross-compiler linux->cygwin32

[Michel Juillard]

I'm trying to build egcs as a cross-compiler on a i686 linux system 
with i586-cygwin32 as target.

I succeeded building the thing without obvious error. I completed 
/usr/local/i586-cygwin32/lib with the libraries from cdk release

but when I try a very simple HELLO WORLD test program with

$prefix/gcc test.c -o test.exe

and that I bring the result under NT, I get the following error 
message

	.dll can't be found

Any idea?

Any information source on building such a cross-compiler?

Thanks in advance

Michel

[ problem report snipped ]

You need a newer snapshot of binutils in order to have a working i386-*
system (where * = cygwin32, mingw32, uwin, etc).

P.S. Please don't ask me where to get binutils development snapshots.
