I've designed a build-system for a customer, and I tried (just to see
how
much that worked ok) to build under Cygwin. Everything worked out ok
until
the system cross compiled glibc-2.1.3. Building glibc generated a error
message that meant something like you-have-bad-memory-on-your-system.
I tried to find the source of the problem with rebuilding and running
memtest86. But no success. But this was maybe a year ago.
The same system works great on Linux boxes.
That's my only experience.
But I have a box from Lynuxworks somewhere here (someone gave it to me)
and that box says that the build system is hosted on windows...
