not even respond to /HELP or /VERSION.
cl.exe exhibits this behaviour if you try to run it from cygwin. If you run it from cmd you get a message-box which cygwin fails to display. It tells you it can't find some dlls. I think I added "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE" to the windows PATH environment variable and then restarted cygwin and everything worked. Hope it helps...
