Thanks Jeff. This now agrees with what I am getting. My guess is that we used a different autoconf to build the latest RC and that deals correctly with Cygwin. We'll keep an eye on this in future releases. I can check that Cygwin works on my machine, for example. Your config.guess script is cor

Hi Jeff. I didn't manage to reproduce the Cygwin32 issue with mpir-1.0, even with a core 2 build, yet. I'm going to try 0.9 now to see if an earlier version of 1.0 might have had the bug (which would presumably be present in 0.9). Is there any chance you could check out trunk from svn: http://mo

I finally got MSYS/MinGW working on my machine. There were errors all the way through the MSYS installation procedure, but I could eventually get it to install and it did build MPIR. Both and ordinary build and a fat binary build work and pass make check. Most of the yasm tests fail, but yasm its

That's really, really odd. Why does their new assembler not know how to deal with relocations? At least I can update my Cygwin and try to replicate the issue you are having. Thanks for the information. Hopefully we'll get somewhere with it now. Bill. 2009/4/9 Jeff Gilchrist : > > On Thu, Apr 9

That's interesting. My Cygwin uses (gcc -v): gcc version 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125) It looks like it was installed November 2007, so about 18 months old. I've not done anything special to it, such as installing gcc version 4. I may have installed development headers of s

Can you give me a link to the site. I think I am getting it from the wrong place. I put msys on my system and there was no gcc. So I put mingw on, but when I ran gcc it just said "no input files". It didn't matter what I tried to compile, I got the same message. I then found that I was supposed
