Did you verify that the crash is related to this patch? Yes, I added the patch and all worked fine. emacs-21.3.tar.gz was made before that change of gcc. If you want to build emacs with newer gccs you need that fix, otherwise you will get the errors as discussed. IIRC that patch was added to the RC branch. > Why not simply patch the sources and be done with it? If this is possible, I don't have a problem with that. My only problem is that the current emacs-21.3.tar.gz _sources_ in a actual cygwin environment are useless. You will always get discussions about the problem. Are there any plans to distribute the RC branch. That would fix the problem too. Harald
