Oracle10g 10.2.0.1 spnc_command and GCC for Windows

Question

So, had a heck of a time getting this to work... Looks like a bad file. Once I installed MinGW, have fun with that, I needed to tweak the spnc_command file in $ORACLE_HOME/plsql.
Here is what I used, no guarentees now.... :
# This file contains commands to generate a shared object or DLL
# for a natively compiled PL/SQL unit.
# This file can have multiple commands.
# Each command should be specified in a single line by itself terminated by
# a newline.
# Lines starting with a # character are comments which are ignored.
# Each command is executed by creating (forking) a process and
# giving the command to the process to be executed directly.
# That means no other program (such as a shell or make) is used
# to interpret these commands.
# The command(s) use the following symbolic names as placeholders
# which will be replaced by actual names before executing the command(s).
#      %(src) - refers to the name of the generated C source file.
#      %(obj) - refers to the name of the generated object file.
#      %(dll) - refers to the name of the generated dll file.
# The variable $(ORACLE_HOME) will be replaced by its actual value
# before executing the command(s).
# The /Zm option is needed only when compiling a large plsql procedure.
# BSW 27-APR-2006 - Commented out the default compiler in favour of GCC.
#cl.exe %(src) /nologo /Zm200 /Og /Oy /MD /Fo%(obj) /I$(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/public /I$(ORACLE_HOME)/plsql/include /link /nologo /dll $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/orapls10.lib /out:%(dll)
#GCC (MINGW) is now supported for plsql native comp on windows.
#Download MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe from http://www.mingw.org.
#The following two commands assume that GCC is installed at the default
#location which is c:/MinGW. Change the paths to gcc and ld appropriately
#if the installation is done in a different directory.
#Finally, to use GCC for native comp, comment the above command line for cl.exe
#and uncomment the following two comand lines.
c:/MinGW/bin/gcc -c %(src) -O1 -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/public -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/plsql/include -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/OCI/include -o %(obj)
c:/MinGW/bin/ld -shared -e 0x0 %(obj) $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/orapls10.lib -o %(dll)
#c:/MinGW/bin/ld -shared -e 0x0 %(obj) $(ORACLE_HOME)/plsql/lib/libpncrt.a $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/orapls10.lib -o %(dll)

This is caused by bash and not by sed. Bash 3.1 shipped FC5 is buggy.
So download bash-3.0 from FC4 and install it using "rpm -ivh ... --force" command.
