The line in question is in OCAML rather than C, so this isn't a gcc
issue. I don't know what ocamlc's non-ASCII support is like, but
generally you need to ensure that your locale setting matches the
encoding of the source files. This might be a case of the source being
encoded in ISO-8859-1 while the compiler tries to interpret it as
UTF-8. Try invoking the build with LANG=3DC.ISO-8859-1. I'm assuming
you're using Cygwin 1.7?
