That makes it difficult to see wether the situation actually persists. When was that you got the problem and (if you remember) with which version (approximately at least) of MSYS/MingW). As I said, I'd be interested in the long run to get a distribution of OCaml that is independent of Cygwin and Visual C++. > incomprehensible error message (and only then discovered that I have > to use Cygwin tools).
