Sorry, but that was not quite correct. Apparently I only skimmed the
log text, not the actual patch. Doh.
When building 32 bit Cygwin, you need the 64 bit Mingw compiler for
cyglsa64.dll. The reason is that 32 bit cyglsa.dll won't work on 64 bit
systems, even if Cygwin itself is running under WOW64. Since we don't
know if the user runs Cygwin on 32 bit or under WOW64, we have to create
*both* cyglsa DLLs for 32 bit Cygwin, while it's obviously sufficient to
build only the 64 bit version for 64 bit Cygwin.
Yes, I somehow though it said mingw64-i686-gcc-core rather than
mingw64-x86_64-gcc-core.
How about the attached?
