Likely ignorance on my part, but why do you need you need cygwin when you are
building on the mingw platform? When building with mingw the "platform" is
actually Win32 (with some extra switches.) Additionally, I would be concerned
about using the Winsock netaccessor and Win32 transcoder when your intention is
not to use the Win32 platform. I suspect that you will encounter many problems.
FWIW here are the runConfigure I have used to build Xerces 2.8 with mingw:
runConfigure -p mingw-msys -c gcc -x g++ -m inmem -n winsock -t Win32
runConfigure -p mingw-msys -d -c gcc -x g++ -m inmem -n winsock -t Win32
runConfigure -p mingw-msys -s -c gcc -x g++ -m inmem -n winsock -t Win32
runConfigure -p mingw-msys -d -s -c gcc -x g++ -m inmem -n winsock -t Win32
While I had a few problems with Xerces 2.7, it built perfectly out of the box
with 2.8
When it comes to modifying build systems I'm quite a novice, so feel free to
take my comments with a grain of salt.

Hello,
I have offered to update the xerces docs regarding building with
mingw-msys and it was requested I document how to build a mingw
targeted xerces-c from cygwin. Unfortunately I am not having success
in doing that. My runconfigure looks like this:
$ ./runConfigure -pmingw-msys -cgcc -xg++ -z-mno-cygwin -l-mno-cygwin
-nwinsock -tWin32
and the failure during make is shown below.

gcc version is 3.4.4.
Can anyone let me know what I am doing wrong?
