Suhaib Siddiqui had sent me the CD layout, but I just haven't had time
to look at it yet.
Few things I had forgotten to ask him, so I'll ask now:
1. What are the mount points guaranteed to be at installation time?
(ie., is there a / that points to anything useful? Is there a
/usr/include, /usr/bin? Or is everything in /bin).
2. Output of CD gcc:
$ gcc -v
$ gcc -print-search-dirs
$ gcc -v -o hello.exe hello.c
[ hello.c can be any old hello world program ]
Given this, I can build a distribution -- if there's interest of course.
So far, there hasn't been.
My recommendation:
- get the gcc-2.95.2 source distro
- get x86-win32 patches from my site:
ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin/gcc-2.95.2/patches/
- build it:
$ cd ~/src
$ tar zxf /tmp/gcc-2.95.2.tar.gz
$ cd gcc-2.95.2
$ patch -p1 -s < /tmp/gcc-2.95.2-x86-win32.diff
The file gcc-2.95.2-x86-win32.diff is included in my patchset.
$ mkdir /tmp/gcc-2.95.2-build
$ cd /tmp/gcc-2.95.2-build
$ ~/src/gcc-2.95.2/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-2.95.2 \
--enable-languages=c,c++,f77,objc,java \
i686-cygwin
Of course, you may want a different prefix, or the default (/usr/local).
$ make
$ make install
This should work in theory, but I have no way to tell.

Mumit
