Download and install binutils-2.9 before compiling. This worked for
me. I have also heard that Mumit Kahn's egcs-1.0.2 for cygwin32 works
as well.

Subject: cygwindevo.dll not a valid image.
I have just managed to get winsup to compile with no errors
(using make all-target-winsup from src directory).
In the winsup directory I saw a new-cygwindevo.dll (of about 4Mb).
I then ran,
make install-target-winsup, and it installed a cygwindevo.dll in
/usr/local/bin.
I then moved (using the NT cmd shell) cygwindevo.dll to
c:\winnt\system32\cygwinb19.dll
(I installed cygwinb19.dll in system32 as it overcame a problem I had
when starting the inetd service).
Now, when I start bash (for example but it could be any reliant
program), I get a modal dialog with title:
"bash.exe: bad image"
and contents,
"The application or DLL C:\WINNT\System32\cygwinb19.dll is not a
valid Windows NT image. Please check this against your installation
diskette."
I haven't stripped the dll or anything, and if I run it against a dll
dependancy program (like depends, for example), then it seems to
think
it is a valid dll.
Help!!!!
