That problem should be fixed in the release 0.49a-20030304.

I *am* using 0.49a-20030304

and this problem still occurs... it renders Visual MinGW
totally useless, because without these settings, it's
impossible to compile the project... :(

I apologize for that problem, it doesn't occur under W*n98,
so I never had it. Anyway, that bug was fixed in CVS sources.
The next release will be ok.
Meanwhile, you can apply the patch below, to the sources in
"Visual-MinGW\Projects\vmingw\local\src".
Then build getopt, winui and vmingw accordingly to the build
instructions, from the home page, then copy the binary, or run
"update-exe.bat".
You can also download and build CVS sources, cf the html
docs.

Manu.
