Hi Jason,

The assembler extension on Windows is 'asm' and changing this would be
a big issue for me with a high cost.

I would either have to change all my assembler code (much more than
MPIR) to use the 'as' extension (which would make my code unique on
Windows since pretty well everyone uses 'asm') or I would have to have
special build customisation files for MPIR, which would be a high cost
in maintenance terms.

This is not a path I would want to go down so I suggest that you just
copy the Windows stuff into separate directories for use in mingw64.
This would give you the freedom to do what you want without changing
the Visual Studio builds.
