Pure mingw compiler distributed by mingw people and cygwin compiler with -mno-cygwin option distributed by redhat. The are both gcc, mostly compatible and the differences can be absorbed with makefiles. But as the differnces are not so small, I would like to treat them as different versions of compiler even if the gcc versions are the same and apply different suffix to outpath and maybe use different names for environment setting scripts. The differences are as follows: 1. Pure mingw compiler does not accept cygwin mounted path and therefore is not compatible with cygwin ccache. 2. Include paths and library paths are different. 3. Fixes in candidate release in mingw is not being included in cygwin distribution and sometimes they may be ABI incompatible. tono (Takashi Ono) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
