On a related note, is Cygwin's MinGW cross-compiler still switching to the more Gnu-ish convention (i.e., called as i686-pc-mingw-gcc and without -mno-cygwin)? 4 or 5 months ago it sounded like such a change was imminent. We already build i686-pc-mingw-gcc and friends for Linux. I've been debating whether I should build Cygwin versions (or more likely create shell wrappers), which would allow us to transition later without changing our makefiles. If this isn't happening anytime soon, I'd favor building my own to wrappers. (If it's not happening at all, I'd stick to -mno-cygwin.) gsw -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
