Guys:


I'm in the odd place where I need a statically-linked GNU cross 
toolchain that runs under Win32.  The idea is that I could then take my 
toolchain directory and move it over to another Win32 machine that 
doesn't have any special runtime environment previously installed and it 
Should Just Work.

My understanding of Cygwin is that this isn't possible, was never 
possible, won't ever be possible:

... and I don't have a problem with that.  Really.  But as of today, is 
this still true?


Regards,


b.g.
