	this has got to be so obvious, i'm seeing only forest...  how
	does one create a statically-linked executable with gcc/g++/ld?
	i've tried -static with gcc and -Bstatic with ld, and neither seem
	to work.  linking in crt0.o, libcygwin.a, etc. doesn't do the
	job either.  what i want is to run an executable compiled under
	gnu-win32 run on a machine without gnu-win32.  i've read the FAQ,
	searched the mailing list archives and altavista without luck.

	while i'm asking, is there a way to convert an executable that
	depends on cygwin.dll to a statically-linked one?

	thanks much,
