Greetings,
Back in the day i686-pc-mingw32-gcc used the -mno-cygwin flag to break
the implicit link to cygwin1.dll. It enabled developers to release a
standalone binary. In other words, cygwin1.dll did not have to be
installed on the user's PC in order for a standalone binary to run.
i686-pc-mingw32-gcc is no longer available. And i686-w64-mingw32-gcc now
seems to create standalone binaries by default. The binaries run on a
target PC without cygwin1.dll installed.
Can someone confirm i686-w64-mingw32-gcc in its default mode now creates
standalone binaries?
Thank you in advance.
Danke,
