Well, the slightly-longer-but-not-very-long term plan is to remove -mno-cygwin and package up a completely separate mingw cross-compiler, so it would make a lot of sense to have either a bi-arch capable cross-compiler, or offer a 64-bit-targeted version alongside the 32-bit-targeted one. Is there much in the way of local patching needed? (I've seen you and Kai working on the win64 target on the gcc-l, but I haven't been following very closely.) cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
