In fact, the OVERRIDES is causing the problem.  In stable there's still
some sdk-mingw32 overrides which aren't right, but I didn't notice they
needed fixing (removing usually) as I wasn't adding any additional
overrides since back when RP asked me to drop that (which explains why I
needed your patch at some point, then no longer did).  There's a few of
these left in .dev still, which I'm removing and doing a test build of
now.  Once this is done, I think Canadian stuff will be in good enough
shape that I'll get a series together for stable/2009.
