So your Linux-hosted mingw cross-compiler doesn't work on ubuntu. And this
would have _what_ to do with cygwin, exactly?
By the way, getline is not standardized (yet; the Austin group will be adding
it to the next version of POSIX, but that won't be for another year or two).
mingw probably doesn't have it. And cygwin has it, but it was relatively
recently that it was added. You may also be interested in the gnulib project,
which includes a getline replacement for lacking platforms.
