Greetings!  I am new to programming and newer to Cygnus software, so I
beg your sufferance.  I have recently installed Cygnus' gnu-win32, b18,
and everything seems to be working fine except the compiler.  I've
written the following simple program named 'welcome.C':

	// A first program in C++

	#include <iostream.h>

	main(){
	  cout << "Welcome to C++!\n";

	  // indicate that program ended successfully
	  return 0;
	}

.. . . but when I ran g++ I received the following error message:

	(unknown) heap_init: unable to allocate heap, win32 error 87
	cygwin: terminating
	(unknown) In cygwin_except_handler
	(unknown) Exception trapped!

I have run it from both the bash and the CMD prompt with the same
results.  I'm assuming that I've got something misconfigured somewhere,
but I've looked in all the places I know to look and I'm just not
finding it.  I hope this looks familiar to someone.

My system is an IBM PC350, 133-Mhz Pentium running Windows NT Server
v4.0 with service pack 3 installed.  Thanks in advance for any help
and/or sympathetic grimaces offered.

PS -- My apologies to anyone who may have previously received this
message.  In a NyQuil induced stupor I accidentally sent it out without
a subject header.
