What's a Windows MSVCR? Since the same program compiled with cygwins' gcc has LC_MESSAGES defined, I was guessing it was just a library thing and maybe it just hadn't been implemented in the mingw libraries yet.. but it sounds like it's not an oversight & Microsoft needs to support LC_MESSAGES before i686-w64-mingw32-gcc will. Is that about right?
