Re: Cygwin compiler and linker options

Phil is 100% correct here.  It's heartening to see someone so thoroughly
getting it after having to so frequently deal with the misconceptions
about -mno-cygwin.  Confusion about -mwindows is new though.

I'm counting the days until -mno-cygwin disappears.  It is a blight that
must be expunged.  I know that as soon as it is gone there will be a
general wail from people who use it but it really should never have been
implemented.

As one of "those people" I wonder if it will still be possible to generate executables that do not depend on cygwin DLLs using cygwin's gcc?

Cheers, Ralph
