You know that "c++ ones do not" is not much of a bug report, right?

I must now have genetic knowledge of building cross-compilers because
I don't see why everyone thinks this is such a big deal, requiring so
much discussion.

However, yes, this has nothing to do with cygwin development that I can
see so either take this to the cygwin list or the crossgcc list.
