well, I installed the experimental package gcc-3.2-1 (updated the
dejagnu stuff also), and bingo, it seems to work.

Here's the test results:

This was on a Windows XP SP1/cygwin P4 system with these packages:

binutils  2.12.90 20020706  (cygwin ver. 20020706-2)
cygwin    1.3.12-4
dejagnu   1.4.3             (cygwin ver. 20010117-1 with 1.4.3 on top)
gcc       3.2-1

LAST_UPDATED: Wed Oct  9 20:27:00  2002

Native configuration is i686-pc-cygwin
