The instructions I wrote up were for the GNU gcc distribution 2.8.1, not for

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.

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.
