I don't think that the behaviour of an executable depends on which
version of binutils is installed.  Runtime dependencies are: cygwin1.dll
and nothing else.

There is no runtime for C++, libstdc++ is static.
It is a Cygwin problem when running executables compiled with an older
version of cygwin fails.  When I use the latest snapshot DLL the 
testcase crashes too.
