I'll answer this one now, the rest won't be for today. Your impression is right, but this is mostly due to the fact that I am porting an application that uses a bunch of UNIX functions that aren't available in the mingw code. An example is strftime. My predecessor wrote code like the snippet below. I've gotten things to work with mingw32ce too now, but I have more confidence in cegcc with its newlib than in code like the stuff below. In case you want to look : the code is in the Xinvest CVS. See http://xinvest.sunsite.dk .
