[Mingw-users] Getting exactly the same binary with cross compiling and native compiling

[Bas M. <ml...@ba...>]

Hi all,

After some helpfull hints from this list, I can now build test
applications that are almost equal wether they are cross-compiled or not.
But still I'm not there.

The native compiler and cross compiler (win32/win32 and linux/win32)
produce 100% the same object code. After linking and stripping with "strip
-s", the files even have the same size.

But still they differ about 10 bytes in a hello-world application. I used
the same binaries of the runtime libraries. So I suspect that the bintools
make the difference.

Somebody an idea?

Regards,

Bas.
