People,

I did not ask about a btowc problem.  

I have two installs of Mingw and GFortran.  On the 1st one I can make a Stand Alone Executable using GFortran.  On the 2nd one, I can not make a Stand Alone Executable for GFortran.

Did I make an install error?

Thanks,

Subject: [Mingw-users] btowc problem

I have a weird problem with MinGW runtime 5.3.1: GDB I've built
doesn't run on Windows XP, popping up an error message about btowc.
Disassembling a GDB function that calls btowc, I see that it actually
calls __msvcrt_btowc.  However, wchar.h seems to say that this is what
should indeed happen:

  /* No explicit ISO-C99 compatibility has been requested; map calls
   * to these functions to delegate to any MSVCRT.DLL implementations
   * which may be available, or to fall back to the MinGW replacement
   * implementations, when necessary.
   */
  # define __mingw_redirect(NAME)  __msvcrt_##NAME

>From this I understand that __msvcrt_btowc is supposed to call the MS
implementation in MSVCRT.DLL when that is available, and otherwise
fall back on libmingwex.  Why does this not happen?  Moreover, even if
I replace the call to btowc by an explicit call to __mingw_btowc, GDB
still refuses to run with the same error message.  What am I missing?

TIA
