Correct.  The intent is to repackage gcc from mingw to be used for cygwin.

The binaries are built by Danny Smith.  I just repackage them.  I include
the source to be compatible with the GPL but if you want to rebuild completely
from scratch you'll have to figure out how to do that.  It's really not an
issue for gcc-mingw or cygwin-apps.
