Subject: RE: Crash bug on win32-cygwin-x86-any builds

Try this in Makefile.  It 'worked', although I can NOT explain why, for
cygwin non-mmx build.  I think the 1.7.7-j5 time frame was about when we
moved md5-gen from a 'fat' format, into an array of 'singleton' formats.  I
may be a little off on time frame, but it sounds close.

 fmt_registers.h: $(PLUGFORMATS_SRCS) Makefile
 	$(SED) -n 's/^struct fmt_main \([^ ]*\)
=.*/john_register_one(\&\1);/p' *_fmt_plug.c > fmt_registers.h
 
 john.o: john.c fmt_externs.h fmt_registers.h
- 	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(OPT_NORMAL) john.c
+	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -O0 $(OPT_NORMAL) john.c
 
 .c.o:
 	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(OPT_NORMAL) $*.c
