There should never be a publicly declared triplet for MSYS.  We have
stated that it is a private matter since only the developers of MSYS
would use it.

A common misunderstanding is MSYS is "UNIX on Windows", MSYS by itself
does not contain a compiler or a C library, therefore does not give the
ability to magically port UNIX programs over to Windows nor does it
provide any UNIX specific functionality like case-sensitive filenames.
Users looking for such functionality should look to Cygwin
<http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Cygwin> or Microsoft's Interix
<http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Interix> instead.
