Hello Zack, Geoff. 

Thanks for your help.  I have followed your suggestions and now all pch
testsuite pass!  I have also simplified mingw32_gt_pch_use_address, to
simply return 0 if called with size == 0.

I do not like the idea of changing the pch file to text mode on windows
host. Changing asm_out_file to 'b' is a safer option for mingw32, since
the MS runtime fseek and ftell are not reliable in text mode (according to
MS docs and a lot of mingw bug reports) because of CRLF<->LF translations
and the CTRL-Z EOF marker

I have added target_gtfiles=winnt.c to cygwin, uwin, and interix as well
as mingw32. I haven't tested on those targets. Nor have I tried to use
the code in host-mingw32.c as a host-cygwin out_host_hook_obj. It might
work, but I would prefer if someone who knows more about cygwin's
internal use of virtual memory to test.
   
Revised patch is attached.


There is still a bug that I tripped over when testing the libstdc++
pch file.

On targets that HAVE_TARGET_EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX the command
 gcc foo.h -ofoo
creates foo.{TARGET_EXEXUTABLE_SUFFIX) not foo.  The problem arise in
the call to convert_filename in gcc.c.

I have worked around it for the momemt when testing libstdc++ pch,
by changing the libstdc++ makefile to put a .gch suffix on the files output to
the  stdc++h.gch directory.
