+     % -mno-cygwin options removed. No longer needed. If someone 
+       wants to compile a mingw build using cygwin, this option 
+       should be explicitly specified as C_USR/L_USR and 'gcc' 
+       should be used as a compiler. But this setup is barely 
+       supported in Harbour, so don't expect it work.
