In the event that anyone is still interested, it's a dirty situation.
Regardless of choice of --target and --prefix, I found that I had to
copy all files from include/w32api into gcc-2.95.2/include, except for
getopt.h, which conflicts, in addtion to copying /usr/include to the
target install directory.  Then, in order to build libf2c, it is
necessary to copy those files into the libf2c build directory, as well
as hacking [de]time_.c to overcome their dependence on an obsoleted
version of <windows.h>.

I see that David Billinghurst has been able to build today's mainline
snapshot, but gets an excessive number of g++ testsuite failures.  My
connection with codesourcery appears to be broken today.
