Re: BUG gcc-mingw 20040810-1 library search path

Which version of gcc do you think it is working?  Have you reinstalled
the 'known to work' gcc version?  Isn't linking done by the linker?

This is in binutils/ld/configure.tgt:
i[3-7]86-*-cygwin*)     targ_emul=i386pe ;
                        targ_extra_ofiles="deffilep.o pe-dll.o"
                        test "$targ" != "$host" && LIB_PATH='${tooldir}/lib/w32api' ;;

where tooldir should be /usr/i686-pc-mingw32 in this case and you need
to have the symlinks installed in /usr/i686-pc-mingw32:
    21 Nov  1  2003 bin -> ../i686-pc-cygwin/bin
    16 Nov  1  2003 include -> ../include/mingw
    12 Nov  1  2003 lib -> ../lib/mingw

Now, the library path automatically searched by the linker is:
/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/../lib/mingw/w32api

% export tooldir=/usr/i686-pc-mingw32
% ls ${tooldir}/lib/w32api
ls: /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib/w32api: No such file or directory

Hmmm, doesn't work, but it was always this way, wasn't it?

Maybe the definition of tooldir for binutlis builds has changed?

Sorry, but I don't see where I should change the bits in gcc.
