Never happened. Even the interminable 1.7.0 release was never announced as "coming by such-and-such-date"...until it was actually released. It is actually VERY rare for the cygwin maintainers to EVER give any sort of ETA on a new release. In a suprising move, they have done so for 1.7.8 -- specifically in response to a Q by Dave K about this exact fenv.h issue. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-01/msg00325.html "Early Feb is more likely.

"Early Feb" == 01 or 02, but not 03 or 07? > GCC maintainers is this OK for your policy? Seems like that would be up to the judgement of the (cygwin) platform maintainer for gcc...which boils down to Dave K. Since he's the guy that actually made the commit, you can probably assume he was ok with it. -- Chuck
