No worries. The --enable-auto-image-base flag should work for mingw the same way as for Cygwin. The -mno-cygwin flag is not propagated to ld, and it's all about Windows DLLs anyway. However, the problem this flag is supposed to mitigate is a Cygwin-only problem. fork(2) just doesn't exist on MingW/native Windows.
