Hi, mingw-w64 <http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/> is a fork of mingw to support both win32 and win64. It'll obviously be setup as a cross compiler on Cygwin.
I would like to get some inputs from Cygwin maintainers before I start packaging; mainly because mingw-w64 is a fairly large toolchain package and I'm still inexperienced at using cygport. So basically, the proposed package to target win64 is made of: mingw-w64-binutils (2.20-1) mingw-w64-gcc4-runtime (4.4.3-1) mingw-w64-gcc4-core (4.4.3-1) mingw-w64-gcc4-g++ (4.4.3-1) mingw-w64-gcc4-gfortran (4.4.3-1) mingw-w64-libstdc++6 (4.4.3-1) mingw-w64-libgfortran3 (4.4.3-1) mingw-w64-libgomp1 (4.4.3-1) mingw-w64-gdb (7.0.1-1) mingw-w64-headers (1.0.x) mingw-w64-crt (1.0.x) mingw-w64-pthreads ($build-date) and the proposed package to target win32 is made of: mingw-w32-binutils (2.20-1) mingw-w32-gcc4-runtime (4.4.3-1) mingw-w32-gcc4-core (4.4.3-1) mingw-w32-gcc4-g++ (4.4.3-1) mingw-w32-gcc4-gfortran (4.4.3-1) mingw-w32-libstdc++6 (4.4.3-1) mingw-w32-libgfortran3 (4.4.3-1) mingw-w32-libgomp1 (4.4.3-1) mingw-w32-gdb (7.0.1-1) mingw-w32-headers (1.0.x) mingw-w32-crt (1.0.x) mingw-w32-pthreads ($build-date) pthreads for win64 won't build right unless a patch for the CVS version is applied. So using the released versions won't work. Comments?
