gcc-mingw would be the pieces that I mentioned in my message. Basically, that would be a /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/bin symlink and /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw32 populated with whatever was needed. >I like the latter -- but (1) I'm worried about cygwin's ability to >self-host if so... and (2) a "real" cross compiler would need its own >version of binutils, unless you do clever symlinking things... This is what I referenced in my original mail. >IFF Chris is talking about a cross compiler. I'm not sure he is, yet. I'm not talking about a real cross compiler. I've got -mno-cygwin working pretty well now with relatively minimal changes. Adding the '32' on the end really screws up a few things which assumed that strlen(mingw) < strlen(cygwin) but I'm working through those. cgf
