	     I have the answer for the second part 
 Wolfgang Ocker <weo AT recco DOT de> posted the following mail 
 About two weeks ago I reported problems when running gnuwin32 compiled
 programs under NT (NT refused to start them). I've found a partial solution:
 the linker option -S causes the linker to omit the .stab and .stabstr (debug
 info) sections from the binary ... and voila, the programs run! NT seems not
 to like these sections.
