Are G++ generated executables absolutely cygwin1.dll dependent?


Greetingz,

[Context]
I use Cygwin strictly for the GNU C++ Compiler and the make-functionality, 
so it makes no difference if I'm working under Linux or under Windows.

[Goal]
I want to achieve 1 single executable, independent of any other files.

[Problem]
I noticed that executables, generated by the GNU C++ Compiler (g++) can 
only be run in coöperation with the file *cygwin1.dll*

[Question]
Is there a way to generate an executable which doesn't need this dll to 
run? A special compiling-option perhaps? My knowledge of the whole 
Cygwin-structure is too small to have a clear view on this subject.

Thanks,
