The problem more in detail:

myclass has members like: char buffer[20000];
If I use -fhuge-objects the link error is:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libstdc++.a(fstream.o): warning: duplicate section
 `.data$_vt$7fstream$3ios' has different size
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libstdc++.a(fstream.o): warning: duplicate section

...
...

from gcc man:
-fhuge-objects 
	Support virtual function calls for objects that exceed the size
representable by a `short int'. Users should not use this flag by default;
if you need to use it, the compiler will tell you so. This flag is not
useful when compiling with -fvtable-thunks. Like all options that change the
ABI, all C++ code, including libgcc must be built with the same setting of
this option. 

Is the cygwin compiler (and its libs) build without this flag?
