Add 256 various files in .cc and .c mixed, then add all
of them into the project. And try to create a makefile
then build.

I think that there is a buffer overflow if the final
string containing all filenames to build is longer than
the internal buffer.

    What version do you use?
    There shouldn't be any problem with 0.46a I think.

    You should try to rebuild Visual-MinGW with debug symbols,
    then you could use Dr. MinGW to tell you where the overflow
    occurs.

    It should show up shortly with something like:
    "Hello... Houston... We have a problem...." :)

    We could discuss that issue in visual-mingw-general list:
    http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/visual-mingw-general
    mailto:visual-mingw-general@lists.sourceforge.net

    Manu.
