This was caused by a packaging oops in cygwin-1.3.5-1. It included mingw and w32api files by mistake, and overwrote the REAL mingw and w32api packages when installed. When you upgrade to 1.3.5-2 (which correctly does NOT contain those files), they were removed. But the original ones from the ACTUAL mingw and w32api packages were not reinstated. As I said, a packaging error. Anyway, the fix is to reinstall mingw and w32api. --Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
