Re: Available for test: gcc-3.1.1-2 gcc2-2.95.3-8


Question about threading models for -mno-cygwin:

Since the cygwin compiler is built using --enable-threads=posix, how does that affect the compiler in -mno-cygwin mode, and the mingw version of the stdc++ library in /usr/lib/mingw ? I would assume that the "normal" mingw compiler uses --enable-threads=win32. Does that mean that code (libraries) built using MINGW's g++ aren't usable by cygwin's g++ in -mno-cygwin mode (and vice versa)?

Also, I've seen repeated references that "mingw's compiler will be built with dwarf2 exceptions". I assume that there are only two versions of EH code: dwarf2 and sjlj -- and you only get sjlj if you use --enable-sjlj-exceptions or somesuch? (If so, then the "regular" mingw build -- which is claimed to be use dwarf2 EH, and the cygiwn build will both have dwarf2 EH, since mknetrel/extra/gcc *doesn't* say --enable-sjlj...) Which is good. If I'm right.
