I want to be able to recompile the gcc-3.4.1 so that I can work out a kludge for the problem I've been having - that is, programs compiled with '-mno-cygwin -fprofile-arcs' can't open the output file to write the arc-profiling data. I'm having a lot of trouble.
What I want to know is, given a working XP box and a fresh install of every cygwin binary package (except mhash, whose install script crashes) plus the gcc-3.4.1-core source package, is it possible to follow the instructions in the accompanying README file and end up with a working compiler? The number and variety of difficulties I'm encountering suggest it's not something I should be trying to do. Many thanks and best regards, Richard. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
