It is a goal to be able to create Win32 programs using gcc that don't
require the cygwin.dll.  I am in the midst of integrating Scott
Christley's headers into the distribution which should help with making
more of the Win32 API accessible.  The specs file has been changed
since beta 16 -- but I don't know whether we made the same changes
or not.  I'll have to take a look at what you've done when I get the
chance...
