I got the infamous "g++: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file or directory" problem on cygwin. I have tried all sorts of solutions/investigations, but nothing has helped.
The g++ under cygwin used to work, and I used it from the Windows command prompt and possibly from bash. I have not run it in weeks, but in the meantime, I updated cygwin. The last fix I tried was a complete cygwin de-install (as described in the FAQ) and then a complete re-install of the latest cygwin (every package). The verbose output from g++ is: g++ --verbose -O3 -mcpu=pentium3 -mconsole -Ic:\j2sdk1.4.1_01\include -Ic:\j2sdk1.4.1_01\include\win32 -o tester.exe tester.cpp Using built-in specs.
