Then I assume you didn't have the same error? But you're right, I should
have included the error message. As for the notice at the end of this
message. As you can see, this is a C program, and I am having trouble
with 'compiling' the source, not running it. Thus, the new dll will not
help. I've also 'compiled' this same source code on solaris with gcc
2.7.2.2, and had no problems. Thus, it is a problem with b19 using an
older version of gcc, perhaps. Since I don't know what changed between
2.7 and 2.7.2.2, I can't be sure. Maybe you didn't see the same problem
because you have a newer version of gcc.
When can we expect a newer compiler in cygwin32?

The error I got was:
tst.c:2: initializer element is not constant
