The following short program compares the value of pow(x, 0.5) to that
returned by sqrt(x) for a range of values of x, and prints out any first
case where the two do not agree. With the mingw family of compilers I had
expected the Microsoft C library to be in use.
What I appear to see is
At the end of this message is a short program. It is linked as a
windows-mode executable so when it is launched it does not have a console.
It then allocates one and uses it. The expected behaviour is that when I
run it a fresh DOS-style console appears and I can type a few chars in and

Are there any efforts to arrange for such an integration in the near

The way that mingw.org packages things is too
confusing for my tastes. However, we have not yet begun to port
things like msys, or to try compiling msys on/for Win64. I personally
feel that the msys environment is
... since everybody is very active today!
I run on Vista-x86_64, and run under a cygwin shell so I have all the
32-bit development tools I like. When I compile I go -mno-cygwin and
that is how my scripts and autoconf things are all set up.
