Problems with Cygwin

I have problems builing SDL-1.1.2 for GygWin.

Cygwin is not supported. Mingwin is.
http://www.libsdl.org/Xmingw32/

But it is a cross compiler, isn’t it?
I need a Windows conmpiler.

Mingw32 can be used natively as well, I just haven’t built it that way
in a long time. Anyone else have information on building SDL with mingw32
natively?

If I remember correctly, the current unix toolchain isn’t robust enough
on Win9X for the SDL configure script. I had to build on NT to get all
the way through the build process.

The latest version of cygwin (1.0 I think - you have to dig to find it
on their web/ftp site as they sell it as well) is very good at this.

I downloaded the Unix tarball of the cvs client, and under Windows
cygwin in Bash type:
./configure
make
make install
and it all worked seamlessly.

Almost thought I was using Unix.
