It's complicated. The upstream maintainer of gettext REALLY dislikes a
mechanism used for symbol resolution by the GNU toolchain (gcc/ld) with
DLLs on mingw and cygwin: "auto-import". So, he arranges that gettext is
always compiled with --disable-auto-import.
However, recent versions of g++'s runtime library, libstdc++, ITSELF,
require auto-import when linking IIUC. Hence, boom.
I'm not sure this is easily fixed. IF I am correct, there are two
options: (1) teach g++ how to build a libstdc++ DLL that exports symbols
"properly" rather than requiring auto-import. This depends on a new
cygwin g++ compiler I think. OR, (2) override the build procedure for
gettext to ensure that --enable-auto-import is provided on every link
command, AFTER the "default" gettext setting of --disable-auto-import.
IIRC, just setting LDFLAGS before configuring won't do it, because Bruno
*deliberately* arranged things to make overriding his desired auto-import
behavior difficult.
I just replaced disable-auto-import in configure and rerun with no change
(see gcc -std=gnu99 -g -O2 -Wl,--enable-auto-import ...).
