My total ignorance of such issues is what prompted my question. It certainly seems to be related to Cygwin to me: If you are using certain Cygwin builds of GCC, such as Cygwin version 1.1.8, you may need to specify some extra compiler flags like so: configure --with-gcc --cflags -mwin32 --cflags -D__MSVCRT__ --ldflags -mwin32 However, the latest Cygwin versions, such as 1.3.3, don't need those switches; you can simply use "configure --with-gcc".
