I've been working up my game with open-source distros and believe to have
come upon a compelling reason not to have more than one on a given
machine.
So I'll be ripping out everything I have in anticipation of the new
release.

Linux is much more aware this way. Anyways, I had an installation that
turned out to be 4.3.0, after which I installed 4.2.3. This is what the
linker is looking for:
.....


You installed two versions on the same system. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES messed
up. The way to resolve the problem is type the command

set | more

to find out which environment variable messed up. The distribution 4.2.3,
from www.equation.com, properly set the variable, and won't cause the
problem. That is not a problem caused by 4.2.3. If you re-install 4.2.3
under a new account, you should not get the problem.

The distribution 4.3.0-20080127 does not have g++. I have no idea how the
distribution, 4.3.0-20080127 (possibly from FX) you installed, set the
variables. The message, you provided, shows "nonexistent directory". That
means c++ components cannot be found. As a matter of fact, the distribution
4.2.3 has all the g++ components. This is problem of environment variables.
Please type the command

set | more

to show the environment variables. I do have a suggestion. If you like to
install two distributions on Windows. You can install, for example, 4.2.3,
under a new account user_a, and install 4.3.0-20080127 under another
account. Don't install two distributions under the same account. Environment
variables could be messed up.
