Brian, How would you have bumped up the requirement for MinGW to 4.8.2? I just checked on TDM-GCC, and I don't see the upgrade to 4.8.2 (although TDM is repackaged MinGW, so it might not be fully up to date).
I just looked at the KiCad-Winbuilder CMake file, and I think I'm running 4.8.1 because of my locally installed MinGW. Is there a way I could execute KiCadWinbuilder.cmake with the mingw_local_NOT_FOUND = 1? I'm re-running KicadWinbuilder on a machine with more memory to see if I get different results. I'll let everyone know the results.
