I need to create a cross-compiler on NT but I can't rebuild gcc from
the source.  It looks like a LFN problem with bash only, LFN works on
the DOS window before bash is invoked.

The mail archives say that bash on NT does not support LFN and the FAQ
says that I need LFN to rebuild gcc from source.  Is there a way around
these constraints so that I can create a cross compiler on NT?

Thanks for your help,

Jeff
