Hi Tim,

Thanks for the bug report. I'm without a copy of the sources right now,
but the *startfile entry looks incorrect! The %{!mno-cygwin:dllcrt0%O%s}
should not be there, so you should just remove it (just don't break any
lines etc, otherwise the specs parser would choke) and try it.

Cygwin doesn't need a dllcrt?.o when creating DLLs. BTW, until DJ's
work on ld is released, dllwrap is a good way to create DLLs without
mucking with the setup. See my dllhelpers package for examples
(http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/ and scan for
"howto create DLLs ...").

Regards,
Mumit

ps: I've changed the list address to the new one from gnu-win32@cygnus.com.
