Hello,

These inquiries are more of a curiosity rather than any problem 
regarding a specific issue:

1.   I've downloaded the source of cdrtools and they compiled under 
cygwin very nicely :)  Additionally, the distribution contains the build 
instructions for mingw.  The readme for building in mingw states:

-   Download (http://www.mingw.org) and install the following Mingw32 
packages:
        MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe
        MSYS-1.0.10.exe
-   Set PATH environment variable using command:
        set path=c:\msys\1.0\bin;c:\mingw\bin;%path%
-   enter 'make' command in top level directory of the unpacked project

I'd like to be able to build the cdrtools under mingw.  Is it possible 
for me to just change all references to  "gcc" to "gcc -mno-cygwin" and 
run make (assuming, of course that both the native cygwin and native 
mingw libraries exist)?

2.  Is there a one-to-one correspondence between the mingw runtime 
libraries (cygwin version) and the cygwin-native libraries?  If not, 
what runtime libraries are in mingw (cygwin version) that are not in the 
cygwin-native libraries and vice versa?

3.  What difference would there be between:

a) having the rest of cygwin except the mingw libraries plus  the 
(native) mingw

and

b) having the rest of cygwin including its mingw libraries minus the 
(native) mingw

Thank you all for your patience.

Best Regards,

Carlo
