I have bootstrapped Emacs-CVS on Cygwin with GCC-4.0.3. Then I started Emacs at 13:20 and it is still running (17:19) without crashing. It would be desirable that others build Emacs-CVS on Cygwin with a GCC-4 branch to confirm the above. It seems that GCC-3.4.4-2 (exp) on Cygwin is broken with the '-g' option. Regarding GCC-4.0.3, it does not belongs to Cygwin yet, I built it myself (only the core, C language) because it needs to build G95. Regarding the observations of Jason, there are a few *.elc file that some editor (Crimson) reports as in DOS format (Emacs shows -=:--). I have examined a few of these *.elc files and the only differences between those produced on GNU/Linux (thanks, RMS, to have remembered me this) and those on Windows-Cygwin are the compiling date and the name of machines, desktop-angelo on GNU/Linux, homepc on Win-Cygwin. At first sight it seems that the bootstrapped and the hybrid builds are very similar. Cheers, Angelo.
