Don't forget to:
"ln -s /usr/include/g++-3 /usr/include/mingw/g++-3" (which is not needed 
in this case due to flags, but is useful for other -mnocygwin compiles).

Not to stir up controversy, but is there a reason why  the mingw 
libstdc++.a and the symbolic link aren't setup by the installer?

Cheers,
Nicholas
