[issue12641] Remove -mno-cygwin from distutils

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

The necessity of walking on eggs with the distutils codebase restrains me.  I’ve read the thread on sourceforge (thanks Ruben) but don’t have enough information yet to decide whether to do a version check, call gcc -dumpspecs or remove the option altogether.

BTW, there’s no need to use re.search if you’re not using a regular expression: “'no-cygwin' in output” will work.
