Thanks for your report. Unfortunately, there are a number of problems
with it:

a) this support list focuses on the egcs branch of gcc (egcs 1.1, egcs
   1.0), we can't really support gcc 2.8.1 anymore

b) you didn't mention where you obtained the Windows port of
   gcc. There is a number of ports out there, which differ in the C
   library they use (among other things). Without being an expert in
   this matter, I'd recommend to use the CygWin port, available from
   cygnus.com.

Good luck,
Martin
