You've got DOS line-endings in your makefile or somewhere like that; the error message has half-overwritten itself. Common reasons why this might happen include unpacking a tarball using a windows GUI program (they often "helpfully" convert line-ends for you, always use cygwin's command-line tar), or manually making changes to a file using a windows editor such as notepad or wordpad. The solution in the first case is to blow it away and re-unpack it properly, in the second case is to use 'd2u' after editing a file with a windows editor. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
