Are you using the Cygwin or Mingw32 > compiler environment? Win32 native. I use a cygwin environment to build, but use -mno-cygwin to target ming so there's no dependencies on cygwin.dll.

Also included in the binaries is a (hopefully) thread safe version of libgcc.a (/usr/local/libgccgcj.a). > The GC should work without much hassle... but note that it currently > requires the DLL configuration on win32.
