 On Cygwin, libraries are stored in "bin" together with executables.
 As we add Sage's bin directory to PATH (to be able to use the executables
 we generated!), the system-wide GCC may pick up some Sage's libraries
 (e.g. gmp, mpfr or mpc) rather than the system-wide ones it is supposed to
 if versions are identical.
 Unfortunately, this may raise incompatibilities: I experienced a bunch of
 segfaults when building different spkgs.
