Sigh.  Moral of the story:  always wipe out the install directory before
rebuilding.

Ok, looks like I really did need that /usr/include/mingw/_G_config.h file.
The problem is that if I include it here for the gcc-2 compilations, it conflicts
with the version that is used in gcc 3.

This was one of those "Meant to get around to it" problems.  I shouldn't even
have released either gcc package without fixing this one.  Sigh.

Right this is the problem that I mentioned on Monday:

*>I don't see exactly the same errors.  I can't even compile your stuff
*>with g++.  :-( It appears to be due to --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs,
*>AFAICT.

I can fix the gcc 3 problem.  I am not sure to fix the gcc-2 problem.

*pause*

No, wait.  I think I can fix this by copying the entire g++-3 directory
into /usr/include/mingw and putting a _G_config.h there.  It isn't
pretty, but it should work ok.

Oh well, powers of two are always lucky.  Here comes gcc2-2.95.3-8.
