The /usr/lib inclusion is actually likely to be a binutils "problem" since ld includes /usr/lib by default. Possibly adding -Wl,-nostdlib to the command line would help. In any event, I really think that -mno-cygwin is 1) a bad choice for an option name and 2) a bad way to accomplish what is essentially cross-compilation. I regret that I stood by idly and watched that option go into gcc. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
