I can't build from cvs sources on cygwin for some time now

[Eric Lilja]

Hello group!

Not sure when it broke, I have a build dated 11:th of september that 
works just fine. But when I tried to build a new version two weeks or so 
ago using the same procedure as before, it wouldn't build. Tried again 
now. Still won't build. Error:

My steps:
$ export CVS_RSH="ssh"
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:address@hidden:/sources/emacs co emacs
$ cd emacs/nt/
$ ./configure.bat --with-gcc --no-cygwin --no-debug
$ mingw32-make bootstrap-clean

Cygwin is fully updated (gcc version is 3.4.4-1), mingw32-make is 
version 3.81. I scanned this group and founds some posts seeming to 
indicate a problem with debug builds of emacs on cygwin using that 
version of gcc. I'm not building a debug build, but I built gcc-4.1.1 
myself a few days ago just to try. Unfortunately, I couldn't build emacs 
using it (sorry, no error log). And even if I has succeeded doing that, 
I really would like to use cygwin's gcc so I can pass it -mno-cygwin 
because I don't want emacs to depend on cygwin1.dll. What should I do? 
I've been enjoying following the cvs version for more than two years 
now. There have been problems compiling before but they were usually 
fixed promptly. Now I don't even see any posts from people having the 
same problems as me... What prompted me to compile a new version from 
cvs was that I wanted to ask about a few problems I'm having and I 
wanted to test the latest sources first to see if they fixed the 
problems before I asked.
