What libraries exist below /lib/w32api?
The import libraries for the Windows system libraries (except msvcrt), that is the libraries you have to link against when calling any of the w32api functions. These libraries are shared between Cygwin and MingW the same way as the associated /usr/include/w32api header files. > Is that path valid under a Cygwin shell only (so we should add it only > when $host_os matches mingw* and $build_os matches cygwin*) or also > under a MinGW shell? I'm talking about the former, see the subject. There is no such thing like a MinGW shell. If you mean MSYS, mingw-gcc is a native compiler and not a cross-compiler and all libraries (msvcrt and w32api) reside in /mingw/lib.
