I just tried compling and running your program with gcc 2.95.3-5 with 
Cygwin 1.3.2 on W2k Pentium III machine.  Works fine in that 
configuration.  Maybe upgrade your gcc?  Although I have to admit that 
such a basic error as this should not exist in any gcc, so there 
probably is something fundamentally wrong with your environment.

Good luck!
