Compile problem

Hi Robert,
Did you notice any other problems? Please note that we, including you, are 
trying to get Xfree work 
I should have included a brief note on my Cygwin installation.
 
 
As I said everything builds (including all the cfb libraries) except the 
server itself. 
 
Some where in the mid of compilation you will 
notice an error message "Error cannot build proxymgr". This error is 
milseading. I cannot figure out from where that error is comming, becasue when I 
check /xc/prgrams/Xserver/proxymgr  proxymgr.exe was there.
 
You may also see a similar misleading error message 
about Xpr but /xc/programs/Xserver/xpr compiles ok.
 
I think either cygwin.cf, cygwin.rules, 
cygwin.
 
One of the other problem is gcc -E near the end of 
compilation process.
 
gcc -E - -traditional -D__i386__ -DX_LOCALE -D_MT 
-DNO_TCP_H -D__CYGWIN32__ -D_P OSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_BSD_SOURCE 
-D_SVID_SOURCE    -I. 
-I../../../../../progr ams/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common 
-I../../../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-su pport      
-I../../../../../programs/Xserver/include 
-I../../../../../exports/in clude/X11 -I../accel/s3  BUSmemcpy.s | 
\ grep -v '^\#' > BUSmemcpy.i
 
Corrina suggested -t is sing -character after gcc 
-E causing the hang, because gcc waits for intput.  That is not the case 
same command works elsewhere during compilation.  It gives problem only 
with four *.s files near the end.  Ernie's suggestions also did not 
help.  I assume something is wrong with BUSmemcy.s, VgaBank.s and other *.s 
files in /accel/s3.
 
Neverthless those *.s files will not be needed 
becasue they are for S3 hardware acceleration for Linux.
 
I would appreciate your comments and help.
 
Thanks
Suhaib

  Subject: Compile problem
  
  Below is the output of my first attempt to 
  compile the Xfree stuff.
  Now, I know that there is no "cc" compiler, and can fix this 
  problem such that
  I 
  get past this problem, but from the web page where I downloaded this from, I 
  understood that I shouldn't have this problem.   I am just wondering 
  what else I have to do, or what dumb thing I am missing.  
  Thanx.
   
  btw, 
  I am running B20.1, and egcs 1.1.1

  I hope you checked the configuration 
  parameters in ./config/cf to see if you need to pass 
  BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS.
