Undefined reference to 'isalpha_array'

[Divine Providence <seekingthesought at yahoo dot com>]

Hi,

I was trying to cross-compile Windows binaries on bsd.

The newlib libraries compiled alright. Most part of
winsup compilation went through without any errors.
When it comes to linking I get the following errors:

 The functions asprintf_r(), vasprintf(),
_vasprintf_r(), _asprintf_r() are part of stdio.o
which  has been archived into libc.a. I verified that
the member exists in libc.a

 strsignal.o is added to the list of modules as can be
seen below.

cygheap_user::set_name (const char *new_name)
{
  bool allocated = !!pname;

  if (allocated)
    {
      if (strcasematch (new_name, pname))
        return;
      cfree (pname);
    }

in string.h strcasematch() is inlined and it uses
_isalpha_array[] which is defined in miscfuncs.cc.
miscfuncs.o is also added to be linked to create the
cygwin0.dll.

I am unable to comprehend why the linker fails.
Appreciate if anyone can enligten me on what is
missing.

Thanks,
Seeker.
