| 
 | |
| @section Linking with -lm or -lc leads to crash
 | |
| 
 | |
| Currently, @code{/usr/lib/libm.a} and @code{/usr/lib/libc.a} are
 | |
| symbolic links to libcygwin.a, where this stuff is actually implemented.
 | |
| You need not explicitly link with -lm or -lc.
 | |
| 
 | |
| In fact, you @strong{must not} link with -lm or -lc, or your application
 | |
| will crash.  This is a bug, and it is being worked on.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Providing empty stub libraries for libm.a and libc.a is not considered
 | |
| workable, because some packages look for symbols there.
 | |
| 
 | |
| There are some discussions of this in the mailing list.  See

| @section Ctrl-S hangs rxvt and xterm

| 
 | |
| This is a bug in the Cygwin pty code.  It should be fixed in the next
 | |
| release.

| @section dllwrap is broken
 | |
| 
 | |

 | |
| 
 | |
| @code{/usr/bin/ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol __cygwin_dll_entry@@12}
 | |
| 
 | |
