So errno was a bad example but you can try accessing e.g. __ctype_ptr__,
__progname, optarg, h_errno, or use FE_DFL_ENV from another DLL, just
for kicks.

Just because lots of stuff works with the small mode doesn't mean it's
the right thing to do.  Mcmodels medium and large have been introduced
into GCC during the Cygwin 64 bit port for a reason.
