So -win32 should be faster than -mingw32. Patches are welcome. Someone should just need to make sure there are no unsupported COFF stuff for -mingw32 and call gcc / ld only for linking.

This is the common misconception (look for mailing list archives for prior discussion on this topic). Maybe it will be better to rename -win32 / -win64 target triplets to -msvc32 -/ - msvc64 to make the distinction clear from the beginning :) -- With best regards, Anton Korobeynikov Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics, Saint Petersburg State University _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
