What I noticed, though, is that the GCC version that's included with
Cygwin is older than what will be used on Linux & OS X, so I was
interested in whether or not there's problems with taking an updated
distro kit for GCC on a Linux x86 platform and installing it within
Cygwin.
Is this something that should be do-able w/o problems? Or, do I need a
GCC build that's made explicitly for use in Cygwin?
Queue that long, hard chug...

If you can't use a real OS, at least use Cygwin to fake one!
