Yes, but I am saying it is the responsibility of libc. IOW, I am wondering if this particular mingw environment is simply broken, and if so, what is the status on the fix? Could another option be to declare the environment unworkable and tell people to upgrade? I am not even sure if we are right to call it broken, but talking to the mingw people might be a good next step, as they will surely have an opinion. :) -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
