Yes. xforms with gcc-3.4.4 seems to work fine.

QT does not. If you get it to work, I would be happy.

No, this linker script nonesense is due to a problem with QT-3 on Cygwin
(see http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-cygwin/2004-October/001848.html for

I think you are missing some library. On my Cygwin, I have:

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libresolv.a  
lrwxrwxrwx  1 kayvan Users 25 Apr 27 15:31 /usr/lib/libresolv.a -> 
/usr/lib/libminires.dll.a
