That will be great.

I think it will work without any problems. I have bit bad experiences with
mingw when running configure. It quite often reports that cc1 performed
illegal operation, so soem of tests fail because of that. I  don't know
wheter this is problem of my machine or of my mingw installation. That's
the reason why I haven't successfully tested the compilation with mingw.
But I guess it will work without changes (I recomend to use cygwin make
instead of mingw make).

Best regards,
Stevo.
