Definitely looks like -m32, both 2.094.2 and 2.095.0 versions.

I don't see a tool to do an exact check, but hello-worlds 
compiled with -m32mscoff have "This program cannot be run in DOS 
mode." near the start of executable, whereas -m32 produces a 
"Requires Win32" there.

Anyway, this didn't change between 2.094.2 and 2.095.0.
