Please report these as bugs so we can fix them. Some of these are already
listed in my web page, so that might also be a good place to look for them.

This particular problem is due to a bug in freopen in cygwin32 (which is
used within collect2). Delete (or rename) the ld.exe executable in the
compiler directory and you should get what you expect.
