The GNU Compiler Collection is a set of programming-tools. I think we've got this thing right. It was originally made for Unix-system and that it is "ported" to Windows (through MingW, and too some degree, also Cygwin) means that the executables has been rewritten to work on Windows.

I still think that you should get rid off Cygwin, and use MingW instead. Then you don't have to play around with flags, like -mno-cygwin. Using MingW it will just work right away.
