I tried this even with a month old snapshot and using cygwin I couldn't get a
build.
However, I've a crossbread mix of cygwin and mingw32-gcc-2.95 that I used to
build it with no problems. I copied cygwin to another directory tree, removed
the compiler and bin-utilities, removed the lib and include directories, then
added the mingw32 versions of what I removed. I prefer this structure when
building native programs. I also have a boot.bat file that does an effective
change root by doing a sh -c 'cd bin && ./umount / && ./mount d:\\root\mingw32
/' before starting bash. I also create and copy a more normalized directory
tree which allows cygwin to be more friendly to non-cygwin programs.
I've never had the problems people have with using -mno-cygwin.
