If you need to find out what gcc is targeting, perhaps you should
use "-dumpmachine" instead.

 $ gcc -dumpmachine
 i686-pc-cygwin
 $ gcc -dumpmachine -mno-cygwin
 i686-pc-mingw32

You think that's bad? When the company I was working for spun off
from AT&T, they decided to name themselves "loo scent". :-) I must
admit I'd never heard of the UK "ming" until you mentioned it. I
suspect we at least pronounce it differently, though.
