It's being tested and should become part of "latest" soon.

I could refer you back to the same set of messages, but...

Using g++ always causes the application to be linked against libm.a, which
is a symlink to libcygwin.a.  The work around is to use gcc with the
-lstdc++ switch, if needed.  This will link without libm.a.

http://www.delorie.com/archives/browse.cgi?p=cygwin/2000/05/31/18:07:09
contains more information on the subject.  Here is a copy of the patch that
is referred to, since the archive do not keep attachments.

I will also send you the fixed g++.exe if you would like. It is about 29KB.
