[ANN] GCC-2.95.2 binaries for Cygwin b20.1


[NOTE: I don't know the layout on the Cygwin v1.0 CD, so don't know
what, if anything, you need to do to make it work with it. The only
users that may care are the Fortran users of course. ]

GCC-2.95.2 for Cygwin b20.1+ (i586-cygwin32) -- Release information
===================================================================

Release date: Nov 7, 1999.

I'm pleased to announce prebuilt gcc-2.95.2 packages for Cygwin B20.x 
(i586-cygwin32). This package is meant to replace the b20.1 compiler, 
so the pathnames are compatible with b20.1. This has only been tested 
with Cygwin B20.1, and will NOT work previous releases such as Cygwin 
B20.

What are the various packages?
  
  gcc-2.95.2: GNU Compilers for C, C++, ObjC, F77, Java plus the the 
    respective runtime libraries. Note that the Java compiler does not
    include a runtime. Search the Cygwin mailing list for more info. 

  gcc-2.95.2-mingw-extra: Contains the libraries and includes to build 
    Mingw binaries with Cygwin. See my gnu-win32 web site for more
    information.

  gcc-2.95.2-docs-info: Provides the documentation in GNU info format.
  gcc-2.95.2-docs-html: Provides the documentation in HTML format.

  gcc-2.95.2-dev-ss: Provides runtime library replacements for those 
    using Cygwin post-b20.1 development snapshots.

What's not in this package?
  
  libg++: Sorry, I stopped distributing libg++ a while back. If you
    need it, see the gcc-2.95.2 FAQ (see the "LINKS" section for URL) and 
    build it yourself.
