Generally I support your view, but being also a pragmatist most of the times, I go with what works best too. Apparently /many/some/ of us /will not/can not/ build on MS tools and compilers. Leaning to open source tools whenever possible, I support Alon's view. Sorry for not replying earlier....I still don't understand why building a working release using MinGW is a bad idea... I hope other people can assists in their view.
However if there are enough builders and developers for the MS platform and it works _better_ with MS compiler etc. then why not? But if nobody maintains the code within reasonable time, I prefer to rely on MinGW or other OSS tools.
(BTW, Sun, AIX and others do have the gcc compiler so I don't see a problem here, except that one can build it on Linux)
