Right, it wasn't that I didn't believe you, I was just wondering if there is a way the mingw might have those functions installed somehow since the regression tests weren't failing on this issue. So if someone out there knows of a way that mingw can have these functions we can refine the macro to enable them. But for now they have been removed by your patch.
Ok, I've got the following packages installed: mingw-runtime-3.7.tar.gz binutils-2.15.94-20050118-1.tar.gz mingw32-make-3.80.0-3.exe gcc-core-3.4.2-20040916-1.tar.gz gcc-g++-3.4.2-20040916-1.tar.gz w32api-3.2.tar.gz Browsing through MinGW's downloads, I can't see an optional package that would provide the reentrant functions. I also searched the installation for "localtime_r" without result. I guess it could be a builtin or something I now little of. :/ -- Daniel Schlyder http://bitblaze.com/
