This has been mentioned here repeatedly. It's not a cygwin issue. This is how gcc and ld work everywhere. I suspect that you'll probably have lots of other problems given all of the warnings that are in your build log but this much at least you should fix. I'm surprised that you couldn't find this if you actually have looked in the email archives as you indicated. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
