I have just recently discovered your project, which is I hope going to save me
much trouble as I have to port some unix developed code to win32.

however, I have come across two problems,

firstly, compiling/linking with the -s flag to g++ causes an executable
to be produced, that will not run, - apparently a non NT executable.

This is no problem to me as I'm not using it, but I happened across it,
and figured it should be reported.


secondly, the stl provided within the g++ library seems to have some problems,

I'm compiling several object files each including various parts of the stl,
and when I come to link them I get numerous
"multiple definition of ..." errors
which refer to things defined in "alloc.h"

As far as I can tell this is because these things are defined in the header 
file
in such a way as they should not be included more than once,
ie. non inline functions, and other stuff

the functions I can fix by adding inline's, but I'm not sure how to fix this
with the variable definitions.


hope someone can help
Dave.
