Let me remind you that MingW32 uses the Cygwin compiler, with the specs
changed to reflect the crtdll.dll C library in place of the cygwin.dll
C library. If you are adding Cygwin defines into the code, you might
consider whether they apply also to MingW32. I'm also interested in
knowing how the Cygwin people get around the struct dirent problem in
compiling lynx for Cygwin, since the Cygwin gcc compiler also has this
problem.
