The problem appears to be cygwin 1.7-specific. (*) I get a stackdump as follows. I find that I get a stackdump under a cygwin shell (DOS terminal) but not under mintty so I'm not 100% sure the stackdump is for the correct error.
Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at eip=611131D8 eax=0022B9E4 ebx=7FF70008 ecx=00000063 edx=0022B9E4 esi=00000001 edi=00000005 ebp=0022B998 esp=0022B950 program=C:\usr\local\companytools\gcc34\x86\cc386.exe, pid 1312, thread main cs=001B ds=0023 es=0023 fs=003B gs=0000 ss=0023 Stack trace: Frame Function Args 0022B998 611131D8 (0022D000, 7FF70008, 10029448, 00000005) 0022B9F8 610C953E (00008000, 10029448, 00000005, 00000001) 1002944D 6103413C (68000000, 46611C2F, 68DF0DF0, 00100280) End of stack trace I was able to get a further stack trace from gdb from that. Again, it would only happen on a cygwin shell and not mintty so I'm not sure I copied the correct error: (gdb) backtrace #0 0x7c90120f in ?? () #1 0x7c951e68 in ?? () #2 0x00000005 in ??

() Stephen (*) I know that doesn't mean that it's 1.7's fault. Perhaps the problem was pre-existing and was only revealed in 1.7. But it works in 1.3 and 1.5 on WinXP and fails in 1.7 in WinXP-32, Vista-32, Win7-67. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
