I quote: "MinGW: A collection of [...] combined with GNU toolsets that
allow one to produce native Windows programs that
_do_not_rely_on_any_3rd-party_C_runtime_DLLs_."

So, can somebody tell me then how can I remove the dependency on
`mingwm10.dll' even if I *do* need the functionality?

I.e., what if I need threads with exceptions AND want to have my program
in a single executable?

I didn't even realize that I was using that DLL!

It has been very frustrating for me. Please don't feel offended.

--------

Also, what is it that `mingwm10.dll' *does* exactly?  I `dumped' it and
found the following symbols inside:

__mingwthr_key_dtor
__mingwthr_remove_key_dtor

The file is only 15649 bytes long (with no licensing difficulties
AFAIK), but the inconvenience of having to distribute it together with
programs which could (and should) have been distributed as single
executables I must say is significant...  (as well as the inconvenience
of explaining to your boss why it's not working when you didn't even
*know* you were using that DLL!!!)

So, does anyone know (or can refer to some documentation explaining)
*exactly* what `mingwm10.dll' does?

Thank you.
