[uClibc]building uclibc for cygwin

I'm trying to get a uclibc compiler running under cygwin. It pretty
much builds without intervention but there are a few gotchas I've
bumped into. The only annoyance in the whole process is that when
I finally finished. The only shared libraries I had were libuClibc-0.9.12.so
and ld-uClibc-0.9.12.so. I was able to get around this by doing a

	cd .../build/uClibc
	make shared
	make install

and then letting gcc-final get built from the top level. What is
the script looking at to determine whether to make the shared libraries?
The Config file in .../build/uClibc looks the same as the one on
my linux host (modulo the pathnames) and all the libraries were built
shared over there.

Thanks.
