[Mingw-users] Linker error while compiling coin3d

[John Pye <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all

Was wondering if this is a known problem. I downloaded and unpacked an 
(unmodified) copy of the Coin 2.5.0 tarball from http://www.coin3d.org 
and ran the following commands:

./configure --prefix=/c/PROGRA~1/Coin-2.5.0
make

and I got a 'internal error, aborting' from the linker (see below).

This is with ld 2.16.91 20060119. I recently installed the gcc 
4.2.1-sjlj packages on the same system, so I wonder if this problem 
could have arisen from that, or whether, alternatively, I have found a 
genuine bug in the MinGW linker?

Cheers
JP
