This is a rather old bootstrap error. Can you say whether this
still happens with newer versions of gcc?
Thanks, W.

Honestly, I haven't tried to build it lately, but I suspect that the
problem still exists unless the people at Microsoft submitted some major
patches to the project. Interix is now known as Services For Unix, and
I know that we have been able to get a newer version of the compiler
built here inhouse (I believe it was 2.95.3), but I am not familiar with
the level of difficulty that was involved in doing so. I am CC'ing the
person here that built it. Ben, do you have any comments on this?
