Remembering I meant to check the FAQ for any extra instructions on
building a debug Cygwin I checked there but still didn't find any clue.
I did though trying a few more options in google find this message from
Corinna in the archive from Feb
(http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-02/msg00340.html)
and tried its simple instructions:
"Building cygwin from CVS requires gcc, a spare build directory (don't
build in the source dir), and the deep knowledge how to get rid of the
optimizer flag when building. It boils down to
Read http://cygwin.com/cvs.html
[...]
$ cvs co winsup
$ mkdir ../build
$ cd ../build
$ ../src/configure
$ make CFLAGS=-g CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET=-g
Stop all Cygwin processes
Replace /bin/cygwin1.dll with new-cygwin1.dll from your build dir.
Copy cygwin1.dbg from the build dir to /bin.
Start debugging."
I still get the same error when building. I have built before so I am
not sure what I have run into this time that seems to be stopping me.
