Thanks.

It is less important as the Perl implementation is the one that will be
used by most users, but we propose the C implementation of texi2any too,
and I would like to know if it works on mingw.  My gut feeling is that
it does not work because it cannot find the libraries it was linked
against, but there could be a good surprise.  I would be interested
to know both if the tests in source work, and if it works after being
installed.

As you know now, this means calling configure with
--enable-using-c-texi2any.

If it does not work out of the box, I do not think that we should invest
much energy in making it work, this could be left to the next release.
But we would change the wordings to make clear that the C implementation
of texi2any is experimental.
