The only thing I found missing really are the libraries' header files.

One such library is libjpeg, which has no development package, and i 
believe there was some compression lib also.

That does not make much sense, as AFAIK 'mingw-zlib' does not use 
cygwin1.dll in any way.

Also by that definition the mingw libraries should not be availible via 
cygwin as they are not intended to be linked with cygwin1.dll

That said if you cannot allow annother non-cygwin package to sneak past 
i can certainly try to compile without the '-mno-cygwin' flag.

Remember that I am talking about SDL, SDL-mixer, and SDL-image, as most 
programs that use one use all 3 (but it would not be difficult to 
package them as 3 seperate packages)
