Hello!


I have now managed to compile a native gcc of the
same version as the cross compiler. I have attached
the script I used for compiling it - which is heavily
copied & pasted from the cross-compilation script.

So now the command:

gcc -b i386-mingw32msvc hello.c

can compile the famous Hello World for Windows,
which is what the MLton build-process expects.

I have one question though regarding the target name
of the cross compiler:

In the build-files I found at www.libsdl.org they use
the target i386-mingw32msvc (which I also use in the
script I sent earlier) and the files I found at
www.mingw.org just uses mingw32. Pete's suggestion
from earlier uses yet another flavour: i386-pc-mingw32msvc.

I don't know if there is any difference in these
target names and whether or not there is a recommended
target name. Does anyone know?


Cheers
