Re: Annoucement: GCC-3.4.0 binary release candidat

I got an error with Ada / gcc-3.4.0 when I used -O3 plus some more
optimization flags, but it builds just fine with default settings.

You probably are missing the win32api package which includes the import
libraries and headers for accessing the Windows DLLs.

I can compile libjava, but when jv-convert (gcc-3.3.3) should be linked
I get errors with multiple defined symbols.  I found a two year old
thread and a patch which was integrated, but it seems that this doesn't
work anymore for Cygwin.  Well, I could link jv-convert (gcc 3.4.0) in
the first try, however it crashes when I try to run it.  As I tried a
second time I got undefined references when linking jv-convert.

So it seems I have no luck with Java and probably I'll release gcc-3.3.3
without Java included.

If someone with a fast machine could test / track down whether it is
a libjava / gcjh problem or if it is a problem with cygwin-1.5.10
(which is the version I'm currently using).

I also tried the 2004-06-04 cygwin snapshot with the same result.

No matter if you take 3.3.3, 3.3.4 or 3.4.0, I cannot build libjava in
all three versions.

My next bet is to downgrade to cygwin-1.5.9 and try if this works
better.
