Re: Make in background

[Earnie Boyd]

So you've built your binary from source?  With what compiler?  With what 
configuration options?

<snippet file="/mingw/include/winerror.h">
#define ERROR_WAIT_NO_CHILDREN 128L
</snippet>

Perhaps your background process is taking too long to spawn the child 
before the wait timer event is exhausted.

Does this build, 
http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/mingw32-make-3.80.0-3.exe?download work 
better for you?
