A bit more info. The file reported above links to /usr/lib/mingw/stdlib.h which is installed as part of the mingw-runtime package. I dug up a PC on which I haven't upgraded cygwin for some time, and on it the program compiles fine with these options that are now failing. That PC has mingw-runtime 3.14-1, so this problem seems to have come in between the 3.14 and 3.15 releases of mingw-runtime. Sure enough, the declarations of strtod, strtof, strtol and strtold in stdlib.h have changed between mingw-runtime 3.14 and 3.14. That package says to report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so I'm going to cross-post this to there too.
