I know this may not sound very helpful, but the B19 version is
extremely outdated and has not ever really supported the Win95
machines very well. I am well aware of deadline pressure.
The latest release is using newer flex/bison utilities and has
a number of upgrades to everything including the shell,
binutils, compiler and a tc/tkl based debugger(Insight/Gdb).
It may be the quickest solution, though I doubt that it
actually directly addresses the problem you've been having with
bison/flex...at any rate,
forgive me, please --- but I need to ask: Why not simply
update your Cygwin development environment to the latest Cygwin
release (1.1.2)?
The latest download release includes precompiled flex/bison
as standard download packages afair (as far as I remember). If
you are working on developing binutils, the latest binutil
update included with Cygwin download will proove to be a great
improvement over Cygwin B19 -- believe me, I've used both over
the years.
If the problem persists (after about an hour of download time
depending on your line speeds and a recompile), then we, the
mailing list, can better answer the question...in fact, the
question may become moot...I hope that this helps...
Peace,
Paul G.
