Using -mno-cygwin causes different program behavior

[C-Programmer <mring111 at yahoo dot com>]

Hello,
Here's the source:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(){

  /* local variable */
  char name[25];

  printf("What is your name?\n");
  gets( name );

  printf("Hello, %s!\n",name);
}

If I compile using the following command line argument:
$ gcc -o ioProg1 ioProg1.c
I check to see which DLL it's using which of course is cygwin1.dll and the
program works as expected.
But if I compile using the following command line argument:
$ gcc -mno-cygwin -o ioProg1 ioProg1.c
I find that the DLL being used is msvcrt.dll and the program behaves as if
the gets( name ); line had come before the printf("What is your name?");
line. Very strange!

Any ideas on why this is happening?
Thanks!
