Oh?  Then I got the wrong impression from the documentation and the
mailing list when I was trying to work all that out a few years ago.
I can't find it now, but I could swear there was something about it
being "deprecated" or "partially supported" or something.

Deprecated was only the -mno-cygwin option for the cygwin gcc.  The
non-deprecated and much cleaner solution is what we have in the distro
now: A full-fledged cross-compiler for the mingw32 target.

The Cygwin gcc option was exactly what I was talking about. Thanks, Corinna and Jeremy. Sorry for the confusion.
