Subject: strace is broken (again) in CVS
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
X-IsSubscribed: yes

With a recent CVS build:

$ strace echo hello -z
strace: unknown option -- z
Try 'strace --help' for more information.

I posted a patch two months ago that will fix this:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2003-q4/msg00223.html

Danny Smith recently reverted /src/winsup/mingw/mingwex/getopt.c, Which means 
we've come full circle and strace, the program that prompted this change, is 
right back where we started from.  I interpret the total lack of response to my 
previous messages as indicative of indifference to the issues raised but I at 
least think the strace and ssp patch should be applied.

Cheers
