This OOo-originated MinGW support attempts to support both running

Cygwin gcc in its -mno-cygwin mode, and a native MinGW compiler. The

-mno-cygwin mechanism in the Cygwin gcc is rapidly being obsoleted, if
|

it isn't already, and I have not attempted to check that it keeps

working. Ditto for native MinGW; if one compiles natively on Windows,

why not use Microsoft's compiler, as OOo/LO has been build for Windows

all the time using that and it works fine.

in fact I have activly cleaned out mechanisms related to this. Ditto

In my opinion, the only case where it makes sense to use MinGW is for

cross-compilation. There is just too much crack on Windows anyway, and
