I've never seen instructions on where to get the special cygwin patches, 
let alone mingw.  The public releases up through the latest 3.3.4 build and 
pass testsuite fine on cygwin.  I suppose the few minor changes since the 
supported versions aren't sufficient to motivate anyone to produce and 
verify the cygwin patches.  3.4.0 is OK, except that there is no gnu way to 
bootstrap ada, and the pch feature has not been ported to cygwin.  Current 
3.4.1 exposes an internal error in g++ when I attempt to build libgcj.
