I think you may have missed my point, I DON'T want to use -mno-cygwin
because it limits my options for building things dependent on SDL.

Well, it doesn't give a choice as I said, it uses the -mno-cygwin flag
by default when building in Cygwin.  I believe the libSDLmain.a is their
way of avoiding the _WinMain AT 16 issue, but it shouldn't be necessary
with the current autotool-devel packages (and I did autoreconf before
building this).

So again, how can SDL be build WITHOUT -mno-cygwin, and what does one do
with this libSDLmain.a?
