Hi,

Cygwin contains several files/folders with names
including the string "i686-pc-cygwin". I'm using it on
an i586, and I've been wondering if I'm supposed to be
- should I have deduced from this name that there
would be problems trying to use Cygwin on a 586? (I do
have a few problems when using Cygwin, such as gcc-g++
being very slow to compile, but for all I know that
could just be because I've got a very slow machine)

Thanks,

James McLaughlin.
