Just for public reference. It turned to be impossible to deploy nasm-generated modules with mingw64 as is. This is because mingw64 apparently adheres to Win32-like symbol decoration, and as result mingw64 object modules are symbol incompatible and can't be linked with objects targeting Microsoft C. For example, C function named "foo" would be denoted by symbol "_foo" by mingw64, but "foo" - by MSC, corresponding dll import would be denoted by "__imp__foo" by mingw64, but "__imp_foo" - by MSC. As something had to be done I've chosen to add "native" support for mingw64 to x86_64-xlate.pl [as opposite to adapting nasm code generator for mingw64]. Case is being dismissed.
