There is no such thing as ming - it is mingw or mingw32.  Furthermore,
cygwin only provides -mno-cygwin as a convenience, but it is NOT SUPPORTED
on this list.  Ask the mingw list instead.

Why are you writing your own posix compat layer?  That is exactly what
cygwin is!  Instead of targetting mingw, you could target cygwin and be
done with all those hacks.

Compiling on cygwin with -mno-cygwin IS mingw.
