Yeah, but isn't cygcheck a cygwin1.dll application? That would mean you'd
need to (at least) compile libz.a twice anyway -- once as a cygwin "app"
and once as a native "app", right?
Or can we build that static lib the same way both times (e.g. only build it
once) since *static* libs CAN have unresolved externals (like "printf") and
then trust the linker to "do the right thing" w.r.t. cygcheck and setup?
