...and its that makefile(.win) which is causing your compilation to stop.

If you suspect a problem with gcc itself, this is the place to post. If you
have problems with 3rd party stuff, ask the 3rd party. If you have problems
with the IDE then DevCPP problem. Finally (and non-too obvious) if you have
pure linker problems then its a system problem and thus best dealt with via
DevCpp (or ultimately mingw). Linker issues might be ontopic here but best
to exhaust other avenues first.
