Nothing really, although "making -mno-cygwin work" should be expanded to include "and applying all the other cyg-specific patches", but basically, that's all there is to it. Oh, and to find a good set of configure options, run "/bin/gcc -v", and your original cygwin gcc will spit out a list of the options it was configured with. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
