RFC: Disabling MinGW support in Wine packages (e.g. Debian)

[Francois Gouget]

Debian's Wine packages build with --without-mingw.

See debian/rules in:
http://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wine/wine_5.0.3-3.debian.tar.xz

If I remember correctly this increases the chance of not being able to 
run applications that expect specific binary layouts for Windows 
function prologues, i.e. mostly those with copy-prevention / anti-cheat 
schemes.

If so packages that needlessly disable MinGW are doing their users a 
disservice and are not presenting Wine in its best light.

Do I remember correctly?
Should packagers be advised not to compile without MinGW?
