All:
While there are definately ICU issues on Cygwin, I
have gotten it to link to parrot both statically and
dynamically several different ways. The problem is
that the resulting parrot.exe coredumps upon
execution. I had always assumed that the problem was
related to ICU since it was immediately preceded by
the linking.
This morning it got me wondering if that was the case
at all. Is it possible that parrot is coredumping for
some other reason? The parrot.exe is around 3MB. I
know that it isn't dying immediately upon execution
because if the data file isn't in the directory it is
supposed to be, invoking parrot.exe will come back and
say "Can't find data file aparently in '<dir name>'"
instead of coredumping.
Is there any trickery I could do to rule out ICU or
determine if it is actually the problem? Does ANYONE
have it working on Cygwin? Am I alone on this island?
Cheers
