I meant that i686-w64-mingw32-gcc exists but not i686-w32-mingw32-gcc. I thought that w64 meant "built on win64" and mingw32 "run binary on win32". So it seems to me that with cygwin running on a 32 bit windows, it is not possible to cross compile to win32. However with a 64 bit windows you can produce win32 applications. However, I just tried to use i686-w64-mingw32-g++ on my win32 machine with a hello world program and it produces an binary that can be used from windows on that win32 machine. So my question to the list: what is the meaning of w64 in the name?
