I am getting this on my real windows XP machine. When using MinGW GCC, but TDM build works right.
I think the version info format is the issue.
gcc version 4.2.2 (TDM-1)
gcc version 4.2.1-sjlj (mingw32-2)
This works well in my PC. I used gcc --version at command prompt it returns -
gcc (GCC) 4.2.1-dw2 (mingw32 dw2-unwind)
Then I started C::B and checking the version string by running the following script at script console.
ShowInfo(GetCompilerFactory().GetCompilerVersionString(_T("gcc")));
And it returns 4.2.1 and in my case a wx project works well with 3.4.x or 4.2.x compilers. :)
I get a different version message for the dw2 without "dw2-unwind" in it. Did you download it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/ or somewhere else?

gcc-dw2.exe (GCC) 4.2.1-dw2 (mingw32-2)
The popup window works for TDM GCC and not for the MinGW dw2 of sjlj ones.
Re-downloading the MinGW GCC files, I have no idea if I am using the newest file of not.
(2007-08-14 07:07) looks like the newest dw2 files.
The files seem the same and produces a blank popup.
PC and laptop give me :
gcc (GCC) 4.2.1-dw2 (mingw32-2)
or
mingw32-gcc (GCC) 4.2.1-dw2 (mingw32-2)
Note : there have been 2 releases of 4.2.1 dw2, the very first ones, had some issues. I guess I have the second one, but as said i use the same files on both systems.
Running the script in the script console :
PC : 4.2.1
Laptop : empty string
