My thinking was, if we require mingw on cygwin, then that would solve the winegcc problem and the rest of wine could be built including wine msvcrt, applications that linked to msvcrt would of course have to use Wine msvcrt because if they don't then we will get in to the situation of both c runtimes being invoked which I expect will still not end well.
Sorry I realize that last sentence ran on to hell. What I mean is, on the cygwin build, require mingw to be there for the compilation and invocation of winegcc which is a wrapper around cygwin-gcc. Wine dlls, programs, server, etc all still would be linking to the cygwin1 runtime but would in no way be dependent on Windows msvcrt only Wine's and the environment cygwin1.dll
Thanks
