MFC with egcs 1.1 (Was: MFC with CygWin)

Hello,
what is the status of attempts to access the MFC DLLs from egcs? If the
name-mangling schemes are incompatible, will this remain true in
perpetuity, or are there plans to allow MS-style name mangling as an option
to gcc?
I am unclear whether MS regards MFC as a proprietary product (as suggested
by the licenses that compiler vendors like Watcom have to pay to include
it), or a part of the OS, effectively an extension of the "open" MS
Platform SDK. I need to learn MFC pronto, and don't really want to have to
buy VC++ 6 (which I don't otherwise need) just in order to do so.
All suggestions most welcome,
Thanks,
Thomas.
