Done!  works now :)

I took a look at https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.programming.64bitporting
I'm not sure I really want to go there.  But in any case, I think
you're right to not try to maintain compatibility with gcc -mno-cygwin

It looks like cygwin.h was included because it has the define for _RICHEDIT_VER
If I remove the include & build using gcc v3:
[1.5] Lee@twinky /cygdrive/c/cygwin/cvs/privoxy/current
$ make
gcc -c -pipe -O2 -DWINVER=0x501   -mwindows -mno-cygwin -Wall -Ipcre
w32log.c -o w32log.o
w32log.c:61: error: `CYGWIN_H_VERSION' undeclared here (not in a function)
w32log.c: In function `InitRichEdit':
w32log.c:774: error: `_RICHEDIT_VER' undeclared (first use in this function)
w32log.c:774: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
w32log.c:774: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [w32log.o] Error 1

The include files for i686-w64-mingw32-gcc have been [changed?
fixed?] so that including cygwin.h now causes a warning:
/source/privoxy/current
$ make
i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -c -pipe -O2 -DWINVER=0x501   -mwindows -mwin32
-Wall -Ipcre  w32log.c -o w32log.o
In file included from w32log.c:60:0:
cygwin.h:43:0: warning: "_RICHEDIT_VER" redefined
 #define _RICHEDIT_VER 0x0300
 ^
In file included from w32log.c:45:0:
/usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/richedit.h:23:0: note:
this is the location of the previous definition
 #define _RICHEDIT_VER 0x0800
 ^


Thanks for your help!!
