Hi all,

the recent ld has memory problem with creating huge import libraries, which let
ld often fail.
Now a patched ld is available under
http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/snapshots/binutils-2.13.90-20021115-p1.tar.bz2

See the relating readme:

binutils-2.13.90-20021115-p1.tar.bz2
	snapshot ld with direct auto-import support for dll's. Required for qt-3.1
releases

	See

		http://www.cygwin.com/ml/binutils/2002-11/msg00744.html

	for further informations about this patch, which will be probably in the next
	official binutils release
	snapshot ld with direct auto-import support for dll's. Required for qt-3.1
releases

	See

		http://www.cygwin.com/ml/binutils/2002-11/msg00744.html

	for further informations about this patch, which will be probably in the next

Note: The current cvs source contains the needed patches.
Currently there is one issue relating to the prl files open. This will be fixed
in the next days.
