hello,

the port was really easy. I played with GCC snapshot
2001-04-23.
Here are the problems I found:

1- Whith Cygwin the timezone variable must be changed
to _timezone. (natSystem.cc)

2- include <sys/ioctl.h> missing in
natPlainSocketImpl.cc

3- Problem with ar and duplicates .o modules.
Attributes.o isn't correctly included in libgcj.a.
I just added the P parameter for ar, so modules are
identified by their full path.

4- Case insensitivty issue on win32 systems can be
fixed setting the env variable
CYGWIN=check_case:strict
 
I can submit patches for the first two points. About
ar trouble, I don't know if my idea is the best one...
