I'm a Linux guy, so I'm not sure this will work, but in general Cygwin is a lot closer to a "real" POSIX environment (and specifically "linux-like" environment) than is mingw. I do use Cygwin, but I have not tried to build GHDL. http://www.cygwin.com Cygwin is trivial to install, but theGHDL makefile may need packages (e.g., ADA) that are not installed by default.
