[big snip]
Well, as I mentioned the other day... I have recently built a linux cross mingw32 toolchain with the latest released binutils (maybe I should upgrade that, seems the mingw people also use a newer unstable binutils) and the latest released gcc (3.0.3) along with the MinGW w32api and mingw-runtime packages (both version 1.2).
There were a few issues such as building with multithread support that crept up into the build process and thus I have some patches for that if anyone is interested. Most of them patch the configure scripts and so on so that it uses threading for the target environment instead of trying to compile posix threads.
I will be contacting the MinGW team about this shortly.
