I don't think I have seen any distribution include wine-gecko. Fedora seems to be in the best position to finally make a wine-gecko package, since it now provides a MinGW toolchain.
Why does *that* put Fedora in the best position? Debian has had a MinGW toolchain for years, the "building wine-gecko" wiki page even mentions attempts to use it. Only problem with it is that it's not the newest version.
Perhaps if you meant that Fedora also has built a whole bunch of libraries using mingw and packaged them as rpms, then that *might* give it an edge. Still won't make me ever use Fedora, though.
Sorry, I think of the word "toolchain" differently I guess. I always considered a toolchain to include both tools and common libraries, as Fedora did. I was aware of the MinGW compiler offered in the Debian package repository, but with no libraries, I considered it useless.
