I've been using Cygwin and gcc for years with no problems. Recently I 
had to rebuild my Windows machine, and I installed the previous version 
of Cygwin (1.5.?). After a few days, I noticed 1.7 was out so I upgraded.

Yesterday I tried using gcc for the first time. I'm now having a problem 
where gcc fails to produce an output file in my normal working 
directory. When I attempt to compile a simple hello world program, gcc 
just returns without showing an error, but does not produce an object or 
executable. Turning verbose mode on, I get the following information:

I CAN, however, compile the same program if I copy it over to /usr/bin. 
It shows the following in verbose mode:

The difference is that the nonworking compile stops before it starts 
showing the "ignoring nonexistent directory" messages.

I thought perhaps this was a permissions issue, so I matched the 
user/group and file permissions between the directories, yet still no luck.

Any ideas for me to try would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony
