Then MinGW should be capable of producing the same binaries.
I've tried early gcc 4.7 and the latest gcc 4.8, but neither produce anything
that works.
no. GCC uses a totally different libc in its generated code. that alone
ensures its binaries are not directly comparable. linking code with
incompatible libc's is gonna result in some gnarly messes, imagine what
kind of ugly stuff could happen if you used one malloc and another free ?
