Hi Chris, Are you sure? I had this exact GDB build failure today; then I staggered through a Cygwin upgrade (it tried to eat itself in the postinstall scripts...) and tried again, same behavior. I'm using Cygwin, no MSYS involved. Sedding away the \r's in chew's output lets the build succeed. This vaguely suggests that we ought to make chew only output \n's, for compatibility... -- Daniel Jacobowitz CodeSourcery
