It's the libgcc DLL which gives us grief, so a new libgcc package is

I briefly tested this other patch with my test case from the mail above, and
it doesn't seem to help.

I asked DJ to take another look, but I guess ultimately we need the
attention of one of the GCC Windows maintainers. Kai Tietz seems to be
unavailable right now, unfortunately.
Looks like I totally misunderstood DJ's patch. The patch does *not*
change libgcc, it changes cygmin-crtbegin.c, thus the crtbegin.o file
which is statically linked into the executable.
That means, to fix the issue, you don't have to replace libgcc, you
have to recompile the executable against the new crtbegin.o.
DJ still claims his patch is the correct one. The simple testcase
dlopen'ing cyggs-9.dll works fine with the new crtbegin.o, according to
him.
