Impossible. Cygwin can't be used as a statically linked library (unless you
patch Cygwin in such a way that it can, but that would probably be far more
work than it's worth).
Get a coupld of good antihistaminica for that allergy and try to live with it :)

Nope, no chance. You're aware of the Cygwin license especially when it
comes to usage in prorietary projects, are you? Just asking...

No, i'm not aware. Anyway i think that compiling GPL'd programs will not
make any problem... i guess... no matter how much i touch the code in
order to make it work !

Ivan,
Cygwin doesn't support static linkage with the Cygwin runtime functions.
If you want to build applications that are independent of Cygwin, you may
try using MinGW (by installing the gcc-mingw packages and passing the
"-mno-cygwin" flag to gcc). Be aware, though, that you won't get full
POSIX emulation with MinGW. See <http://mingw.org/> for details. Please
report any resulting MinGW problems to the mingw-users list.
Igor
