I got it to compile but I think there is a problem somewhere in libstdc++.a and I don't know what to do with it. I think what we have here is a symbolic link problem with the make utility that involves libstdc++.a cause when I took a closer look at the error I saw the message about libstdc++.a. I decided to take a closer look at libstdc++.a and saw I had two - libstdc++.a and libstdc++.a.2.10.0 but there was a noticeable bytes size difference in the 2. I did a less on libstdc++.a which was only 29 bytes and saw the word symlink and thought okay maybe this is a bad symbolic link (we have been making changes to this haven't we????) And so I renamed libstdc++.a and then copied libstdc++.a.2.10.0 to libstdc++.a and then tried the make again and voila - my make completed. Got any thoughts on this. This is by the way on a Win95 Laptop using all current versions based on setup.exe. bk
