I now have working a single "i586-win32" configuration of gcc that can
produce "hello world" executables for Cygwin32 or the Mingw32 setups
on demand (-mcygwin makes the compiler choose Cygwin32, otherwise you
get Mingw32).  I do not yet have this working for the toolchain
overall and the next major release will probably not include any
support for this since this is still very much a work in progress.

The next gnu-win32 release will almost certainly include EGCS 1.1 as I
may have mentioned earlier.  I'm hoping it will be available sometime
around early September but that depends on a number of things, as usual,
so that's not a hard date.
