My native builds and tests of the cygwin copy of gcc, obtained by setup, were
OK, with the exception of java libraries, but including
objc. Test results, compared with results of past generic gcc-3.1.1 builds,
and the test_installed results of the cygwin binary, were reasonably close.
As Danny mentioned, one of the gcc testsuite cases reports failure, because
-p is assumed to be synonymous with -pg. However, all -pg tests will fail
when mingw is installed, on account of linking with the wrong version of the
library. The work-around, if I may call it that, is to specify which library
is to be used, in case someone wants to ask for the whole thing to be made a
cygwin-specific selection in gcc testsuite. The testsuite doesn't have any
g77 -pg tests, so the lack of automation for that in cygwin doesn't show up.
2 of the gcc tests are failing, due to --enable-shared being turned on in the
build. I assume that the shared libraries are important enough to overlook
those 2 failures.
So, to me, the main remaining mysteries are where to look for the
cygwin-specific patches to be applied to generic gcc source, and how to make
java build "out of the box."
