I am probably wrong, as I'm sure cgf is *way* more knowledgable than I,
but I got the impression this was no longer true via the <mingw-users at lists
dot sourceforge dot net> list.

Since Niklas is using gcc -mno-cygwin, this question is really off topic
for this list.  He would probably get better advice on the mingw-users
list.
