Building setup.exe fails as follows:

/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/sys/types.h:118:18: error: 
‘ssize_t’ has a previous declaration as ‘typedef _ssize_t ssize_t’

The conflicting declarations result from the following recent change to the 
mingw-runtime package:

2011-08-19  Chris Sutcliffe  <xxx>

        * include/sys/types.h (ssize_t): Defined as int as opposed to long.

The following patch enables the build to complete, but I don't know if it's the 
right way to fix this:

 typedef signed long ssize_t;
