Thanks that is exactly what I wanted to find out.

Yes it is 5.3.2.  This was the version that you currently get when you go
to www.mingw.org and select the download.  After digging around it looks
like I really need to get my students to use MinGW64 with much more recent
gcc versions.

Thanks again.
Derek
