The following preprocessor macro are used for conditional compilation
related to Win32:
- WIN32 is defined when compiling for the Win32 platform, regardless
if using the X11 or Win32 windowing API (in the case of GLib, this
dimension isn't significant), regardless whether using a more or
less complete POSIX emulation runtime layer (like Cygwin) or not.
- NATIVE_WIN32 is defined when compiling for Win32, *and* without
- G_OS_WIN32 is defined when compiling for Win32, *and* without
any POSIX emulation, other that to the extent provided by the
bundled Microsoft C library (msvcrt.dll) and the pthreads-win32
library. For instance, pathnames are in the native Windows syntax.
The Win32 port uses the combination with both of those on. As these
are in glibconfig.h, they are available to all source files that use
GLib (or GTk+, which uses GLib).

Fetch gcc-2.95 built for cygwin from
ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin/gcc-2.95/gcc-2.95-cygb20.tar.gz
Install it somewhere, for instance "C:\gcc-2.95" (/gcc-2.95 as seen
from cygwin). We call this directory $GCCDIR below. You will have
subdirectories "H-i586-cygwin32" and "include" under $GCCDIR.
0) Get and install Cygwin B20.1.
Next, you need to modify the gcc setup to use the msvcrt runtime
instead of crtdll. Also, the mingw32 and win32 API headers and import
libraries need to be added. I have collected all the necessary
additions in the file
http://www.iki.fi/tml/gimp/win32/gcc-2.95-additions.zip . Install that
in $GCCDIR. If you really want to do everything by yourself, follow
the instructions in
http://www.iki.fi/tml/gimp/win32/gcc-environment-setup.html
Move the include files and libraries included in Cygwin out of the
way not to mix things up... (For example, rename
/cygnus/cygwin-b20/H-i586-cygwin32/i586-cygwin32/lib to
lib-no-thanks and rename
/cygnus/cygwin-b20/H-i586-cygwin32/i586-cygwin32/include to
include-no-thanks.

ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin/gcc-2.95.2/gcc-2.95.2-cygb20.tar.gz
Install it somewhere, let's say G:\gcc-2.95.2 (//g/gcc-2.95.2 when
in Cygwin). Add //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/bin to your

Replace the specs file in
//g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/lib/gcc-lib/i586-cygwin32/2.95.2/specs

the "1" versions of the crt files with the "2" ones, replace crtdll
with msvcrt. Also, extra whitespace squished. )

3) Now you should build the mingw32 and w32api runtime and import libraries.
Go to //g/src/mingw-runtime-19991107/w32api. Enter:
CC='gcc -mno-cygwin' ./configure i586-pc-mingw32msvc
make
That should complete in a while. It should produce a lot of .a
libraries (both import libraries, and a couple of archive
libraries), and some .o files. I don't trust make install to do
what I want (especially as I didn't give any --prefix argument to
the configure...), so I install the stuff manually:
cd lib
mkdir //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/lib/mingw32
cp *.a //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/lib/mingw32
cd ../include
mkdir //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/i586-cygwin32/include/mingw32
cp *.h //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/i586-cygwin32/include/mingw32
Now go to ../../mingw, and run the same configure command, and do a
make:
CC='gcc -mno-cygwin' ./configure i586-pc-mingw32msvc
make
Then install the mingw32 libraries and headers:
cp *.a //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/lib/mingw32
mkdir //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/i586-cygwin32/include/mingw32/sys
cp include/sys/*.h //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/i586-cygwin32/include/mingw32/sys
cp include/*.h //g/gcc-2.95.2/H-i586-cygwin32/i586-cygwin32/include/mingw32
4) Get an updated set of binutils for cygwin B20.1 from
ftp://ftp.xraylith.wisc.edu/pub/khan/gnu-win32/cygwin/gcc-2.95.2/binutils-2.9.4-cygb20.tar.gz
Unpack that in your /cygnus/cygwin-b20 directory. The relevant
difference is: dlltool now parses GCC generated export directives
correctly for DATA items.
5) Whew. That hopefully should be it.

Next, go back to the GLib directory and build using `make -f
