[PATCH 0/1] MR9107: winegcc: Forward large address aware flag with platform windows.

[Bernhard Übelacker]

My llvm-mingw seem to ignore the `-Wl,--large-address-aware` flag e.g. in programs/iexplore/Makefile.in.

I found `winegcc` takes for this toolchain the PLATFORM_WINDOWS branch which misses the large-address-aware lines.

With this patch my build shows the flag also in the llvm-mingw build.

```
$ i686-w64-mingw32-objdump --private-headers programs/iexplore/i386-windows/iexplore.exe | grep -E "^Characteristics" -A6
Characteristics 0x122
        executable
        large address aware
        32 bit words
```
