You can also search Bugzilla for other reports that match your problems. Besides, you can also check the Bugzilla of the upstream Dlang project: https://dlang.org/bugstats.html. Sometimes, issues have already been reported there, maybe even with a tentative patch. GCC's libphobos mostly just imports the upstream code, primarily integrating it into GCC's build system. When I ran into libphobos build problems on Solaris in the past, I went exactly that route. The GCC D maintainer, Iain Buclaw, has been extremly helpful in the process of getting things to work, but ultimately someone with an interest in the affected target, the necessary knowledge about it and access to the platform to develop and test fixes will have to do the work.

Which also doesn't currently exist AFAIK, so that doesn't really seem to be an option that eases the process. I've recently recovered the Ada compiler on Cygwin as it was broken on Cygwin since gcc-8 and in the end I've gone back to gcc-7 to then build it again on gcc-11. Anyway, I plan to set up a cross-compiling environment from Linux since I've upgraded my main box recently to something I could actually do a build on, but of course I'll have to find some extra time for doing that.

I think I tried that as well and failed, but thsi was likely on an earlier gcc-11 or even gcc-10 version. I will try again with the current version to see if that gets me a gdc that can at least build itself on gcc-12+, Regards, Achim. -- +<[Q+ Matrix-12 WAVE#46+305 Neuron microQkb Andromeda XTk Blofeld]>+ Factory and User Sound Singles for Waldorf Q+, Q and microQ: http://Synth.Stromeko.net/Downloads.html#WaldorfSounds

Just try to configure gcc with --enable-libphobos, which overrides the default of LIBPHOBOS_SUPPORTED. In quite a number of cases, this just works, but hasn't yet been verified. You won't know until you try, though. Rainer -- - Rainer Orth, Center for Biotechnology, Bielefeld University

It is possible that the build would perhaps work, but the configure check for the presence of a D compiler requires not just the compiler, but also a runtime and thus fails on Cygwin.
