Funny - I have never experienced this problem, and I have been compiling GPC under Cygwin since last summer.
Perhaps you have a slightly different version of the header (the only difference I think is the `const', and this might not be there in other versions)...
If we have defined HAVE_STRSIGNAL does it mean we have a strsignal function defined in string.h or does it only mean the lib has one ?
AFAICS it means that it is defined in one of the standard headers.
It means the lib has one. But the new test STRSIGNAL_DECLARED means that it's declared (in string.h or signal.h).

I have (I think) the latest (or at least one of the latest) versions of the header (dated 15 May 2000) - and the declaration seems to be just the same as the one reported: char *_EXFUN(strsignal, (int __signo));
But even when I had much older versions of the headers, this was never one of the problems that I encountered with Cygwin (strange ...). Is Mr Falk using gcc 2.95.2? (I am not sure that it should make any difference though).
Also, Frank, do you think that I should put 'os-hacks.h' on agnes for those who want to compile GPC under Windows?
