OK, I didn't find that one.  I was looking at the Cygwin patch kit, which seems
to be broken out into individual patches (very usefully).  It seems to be only
slightly out of date w.r.t the latest mingw patchkit:

ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin/gcc-2.95.2/patches/

The anon-struct-union patch is actually quite small if you strip out the
generated files (c-parse.c, etc.).  It has a good chance of working the 2.95
branch.  I've appended a short patch based on Mumit's; it applies cleanly though
I have no idea if it works or even builds.  Note you'll need bison installed to
rebuild c-parse.c etc.

No, I use gcj, so 2.95.3 does little good for me.  I'm actively testing 3.0
snapshots now.
