It is not wine-MSVCRT headers fault, these are pure CRT declarations. It 
is gcc-c++ headers that are heavily dependent  on gcc CRT very 
non-standard headers. So you better go with STLPort.

Better go with gcc-mingw.mak, as threading and OS is more Windows than 
Linux. See if they have a -nocygwin variant.

Yes exactly. You'll see that you end up with a complete xxx-wine set of 
makefiles and headers.

There are some 1-2 defines in the major ARCH headers that go the windows 
way. I remember I had to define a __WINE_GCC__ in makefile and in a 
couple of places where they have this heavy #ifdef this #elseif that - I 
had to add #ifdef  __WINE_GCC__ to point the compiler the windows way. 
But I guess the compiler will show you soon enough where he took the 
wrong turn.

I'll try to dig out that HD anyway Just so we can compare notes. But I'm 
sure you'll manage before I have time to do that.
