Compiling in principle works fine - however the programs are compiled for windows use, not cygwin. One of the problems I experience is that one cannot use cygwin-paths (e.g., /home/am/test.dat) within the programs, instead you have to use the corresponding windows path (e.g., C:\Cygwin\home\am\test.dat). However, the cygwin "make" sometimes uses cygwin paths or commands - so it does not work well with the mingw64. Is there an compiler switch to make mingw use the cygwin environment?
