So, in my experiments tonight... I had to have the following copied into stage0/bin in order to build with mingw32 (gcc 4.8.1)
Older libstdc++-6.dll which I got from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Base/gcc/Version4/gcc-4.6.2-1/libstdc%2B%2B-4.6.2-1-mingw32-dll-6.tar.lzma/download AND libpthread-2.dll (which I created by copying & renaming pthreadGC2.dll ) ... and now it builds just fine with i686-pc-mingw-32. I also agree with klutzy that we should bundle them for now. (and will enjoy getting a Clang build version to work from stage0 + whenever we can muster that origami) On Fri, Sep 20, 2013 at 12:49 AM, klutzy <klutzytheklu...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I wonder if we should just bundle runtime libraries with the stage0 > snapshot in the future? > > I think we should bundle them: https://github.com/mozilla/rust/issues/9252 > > On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 7:16 AM, Vadim <vadi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Okay, looks like my mingw 4 fix went in last night. > > > > Here's my personal recipe for setting up mingw: > > 1.
