  On a first though I was about to say "no"... but on second though...
not sure. I've got several .s files (assembly code) that seems to be
hand-written (they have lots of the kind of comments that humans use
to do, so does not seem to be compiled). See trace below.

  So let's see if I understand the problem: when I define (and
implement) a function f1(), gcc on Linux will use the name f1 for the
function, but gcc on cygwin will use _f1. So if my .s has been created
with Linux on mind, the developer used f1, and cygwin can not find it.
Right so far?

  So any other idea? Any modifier to gcc not to use the leading _?
