using 1.5.
But, i have installed 1.7 yesterday evening.

I created shortcuts to dir.exe, ls.exe, uname.exe and users.exe to see 
if gcc
was the only program impacted.

No change. After the program has done his job, cmd is waiting for 
input, without
displaying its prompt.

So i think now cmd.exe is causing the behaviour. And the behaviour 
does not
manifest if the program sends nothing to the console. For example,
if you compile something and there is no error and no warning, then
everything is ok.

Thanks.
