I'm still having the same problem as with the RC1 (not unexpectedly) when building for Cygwin.

It seems that this causes the embed test to add some new options to the gcc command line, specifically an empty "-Wp, " and that just makes the compiler hang. I'm not quite sure what might have changed that causes this option to have an empty argument. I think the expectation was that there'd be a "-Wp,D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" in that place. Please note that from the previous release the compiler on Cygwin was updated and source fortification is now the default. Any ideas of why that takes this unfortunate turn of events or even better how to fix it?
