Nice, Yaakov.

Indeed, this is a real cool addition to Cygwin's capabilities Yaakov. :-)

Should we make this a FAQ entry or even a separate cygwin web page?

Probably doesn't quite meet the FAQ requirement but a link to documentation
about this feature would be great. We could open up a new "HOWTO"
category under "Documentation" maybe?


BWAM: add an entry to /usr/share/doc/ with all the details, then update the web docs to mention only that linux kernel cross-compiles are possible under Cygwin. Then sit back and wait for the mailing list to be flooded by eager kernel developers who didn't search the mailing list archives before posting >:)

(kidding! online documentation is always a good thing)
