Currently, if I use a 32bit compiler and configure > GDB as a i686-pc-mingw32, I get a fine debugger. This is really good. I begun with a port of gdb (now about a half a year ago). If you like I can provide you my work on it. On the other hand, if you need some support for the x86_64 mingw target in crt, gcc, or binutils, please let me know. > [1]: Currently, config.guess (IIRC) doesn't like mingw64.

There were several discussion on that on gcc, and the conclusion was that the target triplet should be in future on gcc (i?86|x86_64)-pc-mingw. Best regards, Kai Tietz | (\_/) This is Bunny.
