Follow-up: Check errors in gmp-3.1.1 under djgpp 2.04

[laszlo . hars]

Some more info about the problem:

Redirecting the output of the make the following warning message becomes 
apparent

$/gmp-3.1.1»make > makelog.lh
libtool: link: warning: undefined symbols not allowed in pentium3-pc-cygwin 
shared libraries
$/gmp-3.1.1»

The following command executed by make is 1405 char long. I assume it upsets a 
few shells.
c:/djgpp/bin/sh.exe ../libtool --mode=link gcc  -g -O -fomit-frame-pointer 
-mcpu=pentiumpro   -o libmpz.la   abs.lo ...

./configure thinks djgpp is cygwin. Is this the closest match? Can it cause the 
undefined references to
 _alloca and _impure_ptr ?

Subject:        Check errors in gmp-3.1.1 under djgpp 2.03
Classification: Unclassified


I could not get help for cygwin, so after struggling with it for a week I gave
it up and tried the latestrelease of  djgpp. It is somewhat more work to set up
but it worked about 100 times faster than cygwin and without crashes.

So I have now the libraries but
"make check" gave the following error messages.
Could you give me a clue what went wrong and what can I do about it?

I tried compiling gmp on an old Sun workstation with 3 years old gnu compiler.
The check gave very similar error messages.

Thanks
Laszlo

Torbjörn,

You are right, it seems to be a cygwin problem. Some more info about it, with 
the hope that somebody comes up with a solution (the cygwin people did not):
- if I close and restart cygwin it fails at the same point.
- if I reboot the PC and start cygwin again the make goes further. A couple of 
hours later it runs out of the resources again with similar error messages.
- at the end of the make the gcc linker is called. The command is about 8 lines 
long. This crashes not only cygwin, but Windows 98, too. So badly that I have 
to switch the PC off, wait 5 minutes before I can restart it.

I guess that from some Windows resources cygwin doe not allocate enough or they 
are not freed correctly after their usage.

Thanks
Laszlo

  On my Windows 98 PC (500 MHz PIII, 512 MB RAM, 20 GB free on a FAT32 hard 
disk) I had error messages while installing GMP. The config script and the make 
 worked several hours, blocking the PC from doing any useful work, but at the 
end there came the
  error messages. Are they CYGWIN problems? Thanks for your help in advance

  ../libtool: Cannot fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

This indicates that something is wrong with your machine or with cygwin.
Have you tried rebooting it?

(At any rate, this is not a GMP issue.)
