I am just wondering if anyone has managed to do this, I am using Mark Lord's pre built toolchain on my Linux box at home, and that works fine, but it doesn't do much in Cygwin.

I downloaded the skeleton from Mark's site and all the extra components that needs and I tried to build. After initial problems I removed the host and build options from the makefile configure calls (so it now identifies the machine as i686-pc-cygwin which looks right) but it still fails to build.

Looking at a log from the build, I get a similar warning for a number of libraries:
*** Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -liberty.
*** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when
*** you link to this library. But I can only do this if you have a
*** shared version of the library, which you do not appear to have.
As well as liberty I have a similar warning for: lintl, lcygwin, lkernel32, lc
Then it crashes out with a whole load of undefined referances. At this point it is processing binutils-2.10.1/bfd/

So does anyone have any hints that could save me tracking this down the long way? I assume I am missing some libraries, I have a full log of all output from typing make if that is of any help to anyone.

Thanks,
