Sorry I'm late to the party here. There are multiple separate threads on teh
various mailing lists, so I thought adding a question on this still-open PR
would be the best place to ask a related question. At least it'll be easier to
find 10 years from now :)
As you know, GCC can be hosted on native windows, outside of an MSYS1 / MSYS2 /
Cygwin environment. The mingw symlink is analogous to the /usr/local that's
standard on Unix based systems, which would otherwise have to be C:\ or similar
on a Windows platform.
How does your change affect a native compiler in that regard, where for example
C:\mingw has been the standard since the beginning of mingw? Or does this
change only affect cross compilers, hosted on MSYS, etc. systems?
