IIRC, the reason to stick with gcc-4.2 during bootstrap is that it is the |
| 6 |
last one not needing extra dependencies (mpfr, gmp) being merged before, |
| 7 |
to keep bootstrap process as simple as possible. |

Seems like a cygwin specific issue, needing a cygwin specific fix in gcc then. |

Yes, although gcc may make a copy of system headers to fix known issues |
| 20 |
here and there, but I doubt this is done before building gcc itself. |

Nope, we use the host provided libc. |

What do you mean by "that"? |
| 29 |
Cygwin provides a POSIX layer, including some libc, |
| 30 |
and prefix runs on top of that. |
