Linking to cygwin1.dll and msvcrt.dll ?

How would this relate to a Cygwin app (links against cygwin1.dll) that also 
uses a native Windows DLL that probably uses msvcrt.dll (such as GTK+)?

Is this allowed or disallowed?

Sorry if this appears twice.  I messed up and can't tell if I already sent 
it

You can't do that.  You can't mix two different runtime systems
they are mutually exclusive.
