Hi Ron, here is a patch which enables LFS support when cross-compiling libstdc++ for mingw32.
The patch is fully tested and I have confirmed that it works! (Great, *finally* I no longer have to compile natively!!) IMHO this is a bug in libstdc++ - I've already reported it as <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22388>. Before GCC 3.4, LFS was not supported for mingw32. Starting with 3.4, it was, but the configuration that is used for cross-compiling libstdc++ (libstdc++-v3/crossconfig.m4) does _not_ enable LFS. The patch below enables it and re-runs autoconf. I guess the problem does not occur with upstream's package because they build everything natively under Windows, and in that case, libstdc++ runs some configure tests to determine whether LFS is present. It'd be great if you could apply this patch soon!
