To follow up from the RT ticket... adamk, I'm not quite sure how the points you raised fit into the scheme of things. From nobull's original post: I don't see how such a line of code can ever contribute anything useful. By my understanding, the MinGW compiler itself is the only thing that will ever make use of that information - and it already knows about those locations and searches them by default. If the information cannot "ever contribute anything useful" then I think it should be removed, as nobull has suggested. nobull, as regards the setting of LIB and INCLUDE environment variables (raised in the rt ticket), Strawberry definitely *used* to set those variables, though they served no purpose (as adamk indicated). Cheers, Rob
