My target being the same as yours is it likely to be necessary for me as
well?
That said its probably in the source tree anyway by 3.2

My intention was to make that plain here so that future generations would
not have to suffer my fate.
Oh well :-).
I'm trying to keep mine in script form to preserve my memory. If I ever it
perfected I'll post it here
(crossgcc that is).
The major stumbling block seemed to be putting the PREFIX directory on your
path ahead of the cygwin one,
Otherwise it foolishly uses the wrong binutils and falls over.
One of the other problems was that the first pass gcc build requires
reautoconfing after patching acgeneral.m4 in the cygwin installation (see an
earlier post by Dan Kegel in the crossgcc list).
Although I got newlib to compile and install I still haven't got the second
stage gcc to build. It
falls over in libstdc++. I was wondering if this was why gcc 3.2 has not
been adopted for cygwin yet
but 2.95.3-5 fails for me as well.
