g++-5.2.0 miscompiles a simple program

[Piotr Mitas]

g++-5.2.0 miscompiles the following program so badly, that gdb can't
even break at the exe's entry point.

$ cat main.cpp
#include <string>
#include <iostream>


using namespace std;

int main()
{
        string s = "hello";
        cout<<s;
}

$ g++ -v

Interestingly, compiling with -O2 (but not -O1) makes the program work
correctly.

I'm new to Cygwin, so perhaps there's something obvious I'm missing?

Make sure you have also selected all the 5.2 runtime.
