[Mingw-users] [ANNOUNCEMENT] readline-4.1, pcre-3.4 update

[stefan <st...@lk...>]

Dear MinGW'ers,
  I am pleased to announce updates of the above GNU packages available as
Windows source and binary distribution.

  Following the "Port BASH" thread on this mailing list I tried to
reactivate my former tries on it. Then I noticed some symbols missing in
the libreadline.dll we had until now. Bash is using so called
"undocumented" symbols of readline (from rlprivate.h). Thus I had to
export these too. Now the Bash port (or shall I say the fork() fight) can
start. The readline part won't be the problem... For now I have a MinGW
bash unable to handle fork()... depending on cute little libreadline.dll.

Cheers,
