This will be necessary each time gcc4 gets a version bump (but > multiple releases of the same version don't matter). Technically true -- but in practice, not so much.

There's talk of an official 2.2.8 release... -- Chuck -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
