Hi,
1. Have cygwin ie. gcc version 2.95.3-5(cygwin special)
2. sys type /gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5
3. trying to upgrade to gcc-3.0 (for java)
4. tried both gcc-3.0.tar.bz2(full) and gcc-core-3.0...+ gcc-java-3.0..
5. make install fails ie. libgcj and large jar file are not built
6. during "make install", when builddir/fastjar is entered, chmod is
run but it reports  that "unable to change permissions on /usr/local
   /bin/#instXXXXXX#  no such file or directory" where XXXXXX are 6
digits generated by install procedure eg 265683.
7. prior to this, gcc.exe, gcj.exe etc. have been correctly installed
8. in /usr/local/bin is the above file but with an .exe suffix ie.
   #inst265683#.exe. This seems to be the problem- an exe file is
generated but chmod is looking for a plain(non-suffixed) file.
9. any ideas?

  Thanks,
  Steve Wright.
