Thanks for the hint (even if it took us some time to process it). I just installed the following patch for GCC mainline which will cause the web page to be updated within 24 hours. 2005-06-26 Gerald Pfeifer * doc/install.texi (Specific): Do not specify the concrete versions of GCC provided by Cygwin. Simplify the part on building on Cygwin. Once GCC 4.0.1 has been released, I plan to also commit the patch there.
