Hi,
cygwin64 shares for 64-bit the ABI of Windows native. This is caused
by different reasons (eg. unwind-table description for prologue, etc).
So for Windows targets va_list is indeed of 'char *' type. And this
is ok. The variant of x86_64 abi, which uses indeed a
structure-variant for variadic-arguments plus some call-abi
extensions, isn't recommented for on Windows. If your linux code
relies on structure-variadic x86_64-ABI, it seems to me broken, and
needs to be ported.
Hope this answers your question.
Regards,
Kai
