Guys,

I may have just fouind another Win 2K issue that I do not like the
consequences. When trying to re-build Bash on Win 2K the configure script
exited with an EACCES error as docuemnted below. I traced the problem to a
redirection issue as outlined below.

What is the expected result of ">&5" is the examples below?  Does anyone
know how to resolve this?

I rebuilt GCC on 4-Aug-2001 and Binutils on 18-Aug-2001. I will be updating
these over 1-4 days once I get all of the latest updates for LIBC
