Dear Sir/Mdm, I'm trying to install the Alliance on my PC. The OS is Windows 2000, installed with Cygwin 2.78.2.3, XFree86 4.1.0, and LessTif 0.92.98. I compile the Alliance from source. The installation process was not smooth where changes on makefiles had to be made here & there. When compiling the genview/gcc-1.42, I encountered problem linking the gcc with undefined reference to sys_nerr, etc. Thus, I tried to replace some files with the latest ones including gcc.c, makefile, c-parse.y, & c-parse.tab.c from CVS. The gcc.exe can then be created successfully. Following this, there is another problem where genflags runs with error. The error message is as follow: ./genflags md > tmp-flags.h .
