Hey guys, please forgive my ignorance - but I did try searching the
mailing list / google for my answer first. My problem is that I'm
trying to build PHP 5.0.0 from source using cygwin's gcc. When I do
./configure (no options) it fails... and in my config.log I see the
following error message:
[snip]
configure:2099: checking if compiler supports -R
configure:2114: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -R /usr/lib 1>&5
gcc: unrecognized option `-R'
/usr/lib: file not recognized: Is a directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 2107 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
[/snip]
---- configure -----
#! /bin/sh
---- confdefs.h -----
Just a bunch of defines. Nothing special from what I can tell.
This is hopefully something you all can solve easily. From what I can
tell the program thinks cygwin's gcc accepts the -R flag, but it doesn't
which causes the failure? I tried searching the man page for gcc and
only saw the R flag as a sub-option for debugging dumps. Also, there is
*nothing* in my usr/lib/ directory, should there be something there?
Thanks in advance.
Jason
