This worked for me too. Both the 1.8.6 with the new strftime.c and the stable-snapshot compile OK in Cygwin. However, they both also fail my test /dev/urandom script. There must be something peculiar as to how 1.8.x builds in Cygwin that makes that script fail. Maybe now that I have the source I could debug it, but I'm rusty on that. -- 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/
