Why is g++ used for link with mingw ?

Hi, I was wondering why the linking was done with g++ with mingw in numpy.distutils ? (I got some trouble because some function in math library are only defined for gcc and not g++, for example atanhf). This also means that g++ is required to build numpy, which is a bit strange since there is not a single C++ line; is there an issue I am missing, or is this legacy (the mingw tools in numpy.distutils seems to be 6 years old from the comments). cheers, David
