Cygwin crashes using own linker scripts

[Dan Lewis]

Hello,

After recently encountering a problem trying to use the "-oformat
binary" command line option of ld (from Cygwin release 2.95.3), I
searched through the email archives and found this article in which
Rotter Klaus had the exact same problem almost two years ago in August
of 1999:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/1999-08/msg00589.html

I found one follow-up posting that really didn't address the problem. I
assume that this is a bug in ld, not in Cygwin. Has anyone come up with
a fix yet? What I'd really like to get are corrected executable versions
of ld for Linux, Cygwin, and MingW32. If anyone can provide these, I'd
really appreciate it.

Best regards,

Dan Lewis
