Re: _ctype_

["Steve Biskis" <mlx@san.rr.com>]

Yes, I had the same problem.  It has something to do with differences
between the b20.1 December release and later snapshots.

I was building the Jan-15 newlib/winsup snapshot and egcs-1.1.1 OK
but then ran into undefined reference to _ctype blah blah when trying
to compile my stuff with the resulting tools.

I was also building the Dec Cygnus release and egcs-1.1.1 and then got
undefined reference to __imp_ctype blah blah when building my stuff.

I'm sorry that I can't give very good details but I do remember concluding
that it
was due to the newlib/winsup package somehow falling out of sync with the
egcs package.  I didn't trust my builds very much because I had to play
games
with links & headers, etc. to get both pieces to build.  I couldn't devote
any more
time to it and just cleaned out the whole mess and installed the
precompiled.

I'm pretty sure this will all be recreated by:

1. Installing full.exe

2. Installing the Jan-15 newlib/winsup src and egcs-1.1.1 src someplace.

3. Build both packages.

4. Install the resulting binaries over their older counterparts from
full.exe.

5. Try to build your own source.
