Using -mno-cygwin

[Warren Dale <wdale at ozemail dot com dot au>]

I am a happy Cygwin user.
I am trying to convert a program so that it will be Cygwin independent.
I have struck two problems:

----------

(1) The program compiles and links clean, but is unable to use printf() to 
display a "long long" variable.
$ cat test1.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
        long long number = 123456789012;

        printf("%lld\n", number);
        return(0);
}

$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow test1.c -s -o test1
$ ./test1
123456789012
$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow -mno-cygwin test1.c -s -o test1
$ ./test1
-1097262572
$

QUESTION 1: Should "long long" be fully supported in mingw32?
        It seems that the compiler and the library do not agree.

----------

(2) A program using snprintf() compiles clean, but cannot link.
$ cat test2.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
        char buffer[20];
        long number = 12345678;

        snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%lld\n", number);
        return(0);
}
$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow test2.c -s -o test2
{no errors}
$ gcc -Wall -Wshadow -mno-cygwin test2.c -s -o test2
/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/TEMP/ccaayW3m.o(.text+0x2a):test2.c: undefined 
reference to `snprintf'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
$

QUESTION 2: Should "snprintf()" be fully supported in mingw32?
        It seems that the compiler and the library do not agree.

----------

In both cases I can code around the limitations if I have to.

Regards,
Warren.
