I just uploaded

ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/binary-toolchain-x86_64-pc-linux-x-x86_64-pc-cygwin-20130222.tar.xz
ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/install/base-cygwin-toolchain-install-first-20130222.x86_64.tar.xz
ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/bootstrap.sh
ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/x86_64-pc-cygwin-binutils-20130222.patch
ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/x86_64-pc-cygwin-gcc-20130222.patch

This enables shared libgcc, libstdc++, and friends.  It also contains a
*backward* *incompatible* change to the DLL entry points.  If your
application uses the get_osfhandle or the setmode function, you have to
rebuild.  This affected gawk, so I uploaded a new gawk package, too:

ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/install/gawk-4.0.2-2.x86_64.tar.xz

There may be other uploaded packages affected as well, so there's no
guarantee that everything in the 64bit install dir still works.

Ok, I guess that's it for the weekend.


Happy testing,
Corinna
