This feature would be nice for mingw.org and cygwin, but it is already 
present on gcc. To reinvent the wheel makes less sense here IMHO. The 
mingw-w64 supports -municode for gcc 4.5 for the triplet <cpu>-w64-mingw* 
at the moment, as cygwin/mingw don't have unicode startup facility at the 
moment.
And btw the patch here (especially the parts related to gcc) is here on 
the wrong list. And also I would prefer for the gcc patch, that it uses 
current implementation and names, instead of choosing here some new one.

Kai Tietz
