core with ln command

[DEMOTTIE Christophe DvSI/SIReS/GRE]

Hie, I'm french, so excuse me if my english is not perfect.

I've been using cygwin/Xfree since the 4.1 version of Xfree, and I
enjoy its product. I try the new version which package cygwin and
Xfree 4.2.0.1 in the same setup. And I have a problem with ln command.

Here is an example of my test :

$ cd /bin

$ ls -l df*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 Admin    Aucun       39936 Jun 15  2001 df.exe

$ ln df.exe df1.exe
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

$ cat ln.exe.sta*

$ ln -s df.exe df1.exe

$ ls -l df*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 Admin    Aucun       39936 Jun 15  2001 df.exe
lrwxrwxrwx    1 Admin    Aucun          92 Jul  5 10:55 df1.exe -> df.exe

The symbolic link is ok, but not the physical link. In the old version,
I hadn't the problem.


Have a good day.
