I believe there are several problems in using gcc-2.95.2-7.tar.gz with
mingw-20010130-1.tar.gz (the latest on the mirror I use), and I will append
a patch to the specs file which addresses these.
1) mingw-20010130-1.tar.gz unpacks into /usr/include/mingw32, but the
specs file has `mingw' in several places. I've assumed the specs file
is the wrong one here.
2) The mingw(32) files are selected by -idirafter, and so come after
those in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.2-7/include in the
system include path. This is wrong at least in the case of
float.h, where the mingw version must take precedence. Maybe
-isystem /usr/local/include/mingw was just a mistake.
3) The -mno-cygwin build is now targeted at msvcrt.dll (good).
However, the mingw header files default to target crtdll.dll
unless __MSVCRT__ is set, and it has not been.
4) `*mingw_include_path: i686-pc-cygwin' seems out of date : the
mingw include files are no longer installed there.
5) I rather suspect from the header files that __MINGW32__ should be
0.3 not 0.2.
I usually use the real mingw compilers to compile the GNU R project
(http://www.r-project.org) but a user complained that it no longer
compiled under cygwin, which led me to investigate this.
I have not attempted to sort out the g++ header file paths, as
without a mingw version of libstdc++ (AFAICS) there is little
mileage in compiling C++ under -mno-cygwin, and I don't have need of it.
