Re: Problem building GCCC-3.0 under cygwin- help urgent please

["Unmesh joshi" <unmesh_joshi at hotmail dot com>]

I installed cygwin, which i downloaded from cygwin site.Adn then again 
installed the gcc-3.0 build.This time it compiled perfectly,I was also able 
to compile my programs.
I think this may be a problwm with cygwin version.Try downloading latest 
cygwin and compiling again.
