Hello. I have recently discovered that the cygwin version I am using (1.7.7) doesn't support many long-double function, like sqrtl, modfl, frexpl, etc.
I have been reading on newlib's website, sourceware.org/newlib, that as of version 1.18.0, such long-double functions are now supported. (http://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2009/msg01135.html) What I can't seem to find out is, what version of newlib is in the newest release of cygwin, and if it has this better support for long-double functions. One of the things I am trying to build with long-double support is Perl-5-12.3, with use64bitint and uselongdouble options enabled (by default they are not.) It requires functions such as sqrtl, modfl, frexpl, which it seems are not available in the version of cygwin I am using (1.7.7.) Thanks for any help and insight. -ncow -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
