It is rather Cygwin's attempt to accomdate the use of the native runtimes. So, leave posts concerning -mno-cygwin on the Cygwin list and suggest instead they might consider using the native MinGW toolset and point them to this list. I've CCed the developers list on this so that other developers can give their IMO's.

Hi Folks, I totally agree with Earnie here. Cygwin using -mno-cygwin is a mere shadow of the power of mingw when it comes to native windows development. In the future I will invoke the policy that Earnie has outlined below. Peace, Paul G.
