<http://mingw.org/>. This is what you invoke when you give the -mno-cygwin flag to gcc. Incidentally, once you eliminate Cygwin from the equation, any further questions or problem reports about "gcc -mno-cygwin" should go to the mingw-users list. > > Why are you linking in libc.a explicitly?

"gcc" (with appropriate flags, i.e., "-mno-cygwin") should do the right thing. You can also use "gcc -shared" instead of dlltool, IIRC. > > What's LIBS set to? What's DLLNAME set to?

See above. "gcc" does invoke "ld" under the covers, but it's very hard to reconstruct the actual command line manually, so why not just use "gcc"? > Does gcc accept -e option ? > Thanks If you mean "ld"'s option to set the start address, then "gcc" itself doesn't, but you can pass it to "ld" via -Wl,-e...
