Hi,

After compiling a snapshot, I tried to strip the cygwin1.dll using the binutils strip command. After I did this I started seeing this windows dialog box appear:

"ls.exe - Bad Image

The application or DLL F:\cygwin\home\peter\tmp\cygwin1.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."

I first tried this on cygwin 1.5.18 using binutils 20050610. I then updated my cygwin to the latest snapshot and tried again, and I got the same message. I then tried rebuilding binutils, just to make sure it wasn't a binutils build issue, and received the same error message when I used this recompiled strip.

Let me know is you need additional information...cycheck output for snapshot is attached.
Peter
