If it works on other x86 ports and not on Cygwin, it's quite possibly a 
bug. Calling it a feature makes some of us feel better of course ;-)

I haven't seen this even with very large objects, so I'm rather curious.
Can you send me the preprocessed file so I can take a look?
  
  $ c++ -v -save-temps [usual compiler flags] -c <file.cc>

will create a <file.ii> file, which is what I need. Also send me the 
compiler output to the screen please ('-v' option). 

It's probably going to be large, so you might want to compress it before
attaching.

Regards,
Mumit
