Well I hadn't heard of it either, but build.jam contains:

## GCC 2.x, 3.x on CYGWIN but without cygwin1.dll
toolset gcc-nocygwin gcc : "-o " : -D
: -s -O3 -mno-cygwin
[ opt --release : -finline-functions ]
[ opt --debug : -s -O3 -fno-inline -pg ]
-I$(--python-include)
: -L$(--python-lib[1]) -l$(--python-lib[2]) ;

But the -s -O3 -mno-cygwin options don't appear to get propagated - should 
they?

Thanks, John.
