The instructions I wrote up were for the GNU gcc distribution 2.8.1, not for
the cygnus distribution.  I haven't tried building the cygnus distribution,
so I don't know what the differences are.

Ah, I missed that part.  So crossgcc is a _patch_ that maybe affects how
the compiler does things, maybe or maybe not making it compile without the
header file mess.  And it probably makes gcc run correctly under (only?)
Cygwin.  Got it.

[Don't know if anybody out there is from Cygnus, but I think the Cygwin
stuff is pretty cool.  Anyone out there who doesn't know about it ought to
check it out.  http://www.cygnus.com/.]

(...) It makes gcc not require the headers, yep, and tweaks a few other little thing. Dunno about Cygwin - I'm building on FreeBSD. Cheers, Ben. (26 years ago, 7-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics)
