Fyi, with the latest changes I've submitted to cygwin, it's now possible
to build both C and C++ JNI DLLs with cygwin GCC. I only tried the most
trivial JNI DLLs, so let's see what more bugs are hiding. The test cases
did include memory allocation (both malloc and new families) and standard
I/O (both printf and iostreams).

I don't know if the changes will be accepted however (that depends on
the quality of the patch, and Geoffrey will have to decide if it's
ok).

Mumit
