I was just testing the C++ code. No -mno-cygwin at all.

The quirks were having an unrunnable file foo.

Then I realised where I was in the fs, moved it out of there, and voila,

However I think one interesting thing has come up - is the cygwin gcc
3.1.x patched to generate foo.exe when passed '-o foo' ?
