Greetings,

I've gone and compiled GCC 3.3.1 to be a cross-compiler for PPC. I can 
compile simple programs with my cross-compiler, take it to the PPC target 
and have it work. I am now trying to take it to the next step and compile 
the kernel. When I tried to do the "depends" I got the following.

-----------
scripts/mkdep -- init/*.c > .depend
scripts/mkdep -- `find /cygdrive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/asm 
/cygdrive/d/To
ols/linux-2.4.20/include/linux /cygdrive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/scsi 
/cygd
rive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/net 
/cygdrive/d/Tools/linux-2.4.20/include/mat
h-emu \( -name SCCS -o -name .svn \) -prune -o -follow -name \*.h ! -name 
modver
sions.h -print` > .hdepend
make: *** [dep-files] Error 255
-----------

Basically it's finding all the *.h files and doing the dependencies, I tried 
this command with the regular shell and this yields about 927 .H files or 
so.

I searched this list and found that others have had problems either with 
pipes/redirection or really long command line parameters. But the things 
that did work for others didn't work for me.

I'm running the latest Cygwin with DLL version 1.5.5-1. Any and all ideas 
appreciated.

~Ashwin
