Oh, sorry, I forgot you need also something like
--target=3Di686-mingw32 but this may not be optimal performance-wise
(if it works, --target=3Dpentium_m-mingw32 or similar would be better).
And you definitely should use either yasm or nasm (nasm exists
as a cygwin package, but you need to use --yasm=3Dnasm then).
