AFAIK, RSXWIN is not for Win95, but I'm not sure.
Anyway, I'd say that currently, neither is good enough: RSXWIN is
reportedly only for porting already debugged apps, as it doesn't include
debug tools; and the Cygnus project is in very early beta phase, whereby
it keeps changing with every release in a way that breaks programs
already compiled with a previous release (for an example, read the ``C
Programming'' column in the latest issues of ``Dr. Dobb's Journal'').
