Just asking in general, but are you related to the people doing the
cygwin release on the gfortran web page? I downloased the exe about 2
weeks ago and it did nothing. Yes, NOTHING! gfortan --version gave the
version but a gfortran complile gave no errors and no executable. I went
back to a version I had a year ago on another laptop and it worked fine.
Did I just have a bad snapshot?
