Indeed, yes. The last version posted on OSDN.net was 2.28, (which seems to be too old). Although I've been using GCC-8.2.0 for several months now, (as a Linux hosted mingw32 cross-compiler), I'd overlooked that my cross installation was using an in-tree binutils-2.31.1 build, and in-tree binutils builds don't seem to play nicely with the GCC cross-native process I used to build gcc-8.2.0-mingw32. I was able to reproduce your issue, on a WinXP VM, after performing a clean mingw-get install of g++-8.2.0-mingw32. Just now, I've completed a build of binutils-2.31.1-mingw32, and overwriting the binutils-2.28 installation in the VM does seem to resolve the issue. I'll get the new binutils-2.31.1-mingw32 packages posted ASAP, but do please be aware that there can be around an hour's delay between posting and propagation of the updates to the mirrors, (so mingw-get will not see them straight away). -- Regards, Keith.
