I would like to know if other people encounter the same problem.

We are using gnu-win32 snapshot 18. I believe the latest from Cygnus is
snapshot 19. Anyway, to make sure that we are completely in sync, try
download the necessary tools from:

 ftp://ftp.orl.co.uk/pub/omniORB/gnu-win32-lite.zip

Another possible cause of problems might be that you have NT resources kit
installed on your machine and the posix binaries from the resource kit got
picked up instead of the ones from gnuwin32.

Send me an email if you need more help.

Regards,
Sai-Lai
