Hi Chris,

I have no used mingw per se for this.
I just happened to have a spare time slot when I was reading the posting
about the compiler performance comparison.
So I simply added -mno-cygwin to the compile flags used to compile my
sources (which btw, don't use anything cygwin specific - I think)
are tried to compile.

Right now I don't have more time than it took to write this - but I pick up
on the issue later.

Hans
