I was even able to build an i686-mingw32 compiler (though I doubt it really does much Pentium II optimisations, if at all). comments: 1. Why aren't these patches applied to the 2.95.3 CVS tree? 2. It was unclear that such patches were even needed; there are many docs floating around the net which say that ./configure with the proper parameters is sufficient to build a cross mingw compiler (along with headers and run-time libraries). Too bad there so much incorrect and/or old info on the net. 3. It would have been impossible to find the above link on mingw cross-compiling without the advice of this mailing list. Since this link contains, to my knowledge, the only working method on building a cross mingw compiler, could we put it in the FAQ?
