Ah, as in "requested" in http://cygwin.com/bugs.html. Thanks for that
correction; in my defense, the link from the mailing list guidelines
calls that page "bug reporting guidelines", and I don't think I've
actually found a bug. Anyway, here it is.

I've been using gcc extensively to compile scheme interpreters and to
compile code generated by various scheme-to-C systems. Here's a simple
check, though:
---
$ echo -e '#include <stdio.h>\nmain(){printf("Hello World\\n");}' >
hw.c; cat hw.c; /usr/bin/gcc hw.c; ./a.exe
#include <stdio.h>
main(){printf("Hello World\n");}
Hello World
