Cygwin, gcc 4, and Bochs...

I was trying to run ./configure with the latest Bochs source (2.4.2 at the time of this writing). It kept failing rather quickly with the cryptic message that the C compiler cannot create executables. I'm pretty sure that my compiler can create executables so instead of actually looking at configure.log, I head to google ... fail. I finally look at configure.log and there it is, gcc no longer supports the -mno-cygwin option! I modify the script so that it doesn't use -mno-cygwin and configure finished without problem.
