I needed a statically linked version of busybox,
without any dependence on a non- windows dll.
Because I ran into more porting work
than I wanted on MingW, and because my busybox
configuration compiled almost out of the box
on CygWin, I dug into winsup and modified it
a little.
For those interest

I'm fairly new to Cygwin but from what I've picked up there is no static version of
the cygwin library available either binary or source. This is a deliberate policy to
try t
I am using gcc under cygwin and I would like to ship hello.exe to a friend
who does not have cygwin1.dll on his computer.
$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/specs
gcc version 2.95.3-5 (cygwin special)
$ gcc hello.c -o hello.exe -st
