I've rewritten speclib (for the third or fourth time). It should use a more foolproof method to create the .a files. The output from "objdump -p" still shows separate "DLL Name" sections whenever one of these special libraries is used but hopefully this is no longer an issue since the import libraries should now be well-formed. Can you confirm if this fixes the problem Dave? cgf -- 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/
