Cygwin uses bash too, but probably has more severe command-line- length limitations which expose this issue than say bash on RH 9.0. I don't build on Windows, but recall that I was surprised to see the massive link command line on Linux and sort of wondered out loud why things didn't break. MinGW folks, has anyone run across this when building gcj on Cygwin or MSYS?: - http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2004-09/msg00085.html - http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2004-09/msg00088.html -- Mohan http://www.thisiscool.com/ http://www.animalsong.org/
