The point isn't that to find workarounds.

The point is, so as stand the things, unless a new Cygwin 1.5.25-16
(or 1.5.26-1 ?), the build of GFortran-trunk and friends is
*officially* broken for cygwin-users.


Thanks,
   Angelo.

	Adjust strsignal to POSIX 200x prototype.
	* strsignal.c (strsignal): Remove const.

  You may need to build and install cygwin from CVS[*] to get the
corresponding newlib fix and install it into your system headers in
/usr/include.  Or you could patch your /usr/include/string.h locally.  See

http://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2008/msg00342.html

for the other half of Eric's patch.

    cheers,

[*] - You may not want to do that because of the 1.5 -> 1.7 WIP, in which
case you could rebuild your current DLL from its source package and backport
the patch linked above.

A PR should be opened for this. Has that been done? Is it marked as a regression and as a blocker?

Who has responsibility to fix this?

Regards,

Jerry
