Package: mingw-w64
Version: 6.0.0-3

According to
<URL: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-5392 >, the
issue is unsolved in Debian, thus I create this issue to track the
status.

The problem at hand is that mingw-w64 fail to create binaries with a
working ASLR security feature, even when asked to do so.  Packages that
might be affected are listed on
<URL: 
https://lintian.debian.org/tags/portable-executable-missing-security-features.html
 >.

According to two upstream issues, 
<URL: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17321 > and
<URL: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19011 >,
the problem was fixed in januar 2020.  Is the issue also fixed in
Debian?

I picked the version in stable as the starting point, but suspect the
problem also exist in earier versions.
