I cannot remember the last time when I used MinGW and don't think
that it would produce a working program (wasn't there missing support
for thread local storage?). Current Linux distributions include
support for mingw-w64 cross compilations, but not for MinGW.
And finally MinGW only supports 32 bit Windows which looses
importance nowadays.
Therefore dropping MinGW support and only supporting mingw-w64 would
be fine for me.

Stefan
