I am trying to setup some old version of Cygwin on my Windows 7 x64 OS. So far so good. Now I am stuck at srdout/stderr distinction problem:
$ vmake
1 [main] make 7060 dtable::stdio_init: couldn't make stderr distinct from stdout
$ ls /
1 [main] ls 8180 dtable::stdio_init: couldn't make stderr distinct from stdout
Cygwin.bat Cygwin.ico bin cygdrive etc lib proc setup.log setup.log.full tmp usr var
I am running:
$ uname -srv
1 [main] uname 5876 dtable::stdio_init: couldn't make stderr distinct from stdout
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) 2008-06-12 19:34
The Cygwin installation had DOS line-endings option selected (for some legacy code compatibility).
To fix another issues with line endings (bash had troubles processing /cygdrive/c/cygwin-legacy/bin/vmake script, like issue described here: http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/softdevel/faq/5.html ) I've added these to ~/.bash_profile:
export SHELLOPTS
set -o igncr
After reading http://lists-archives.com/cygwin/50369-run-requires-cygwin-tty.html I also set:
$ CYGWIN=tty
This changed nothing. I am still getting
1 [main] make 7060 dtable::stdio_init: couldn't make stderr distinct from stdout
with different 4-digit number each time.
