It's not that I would like to have the option of compiling Gem in MinGW, it's that I would like the default builds of Gem to be able to communicate with GridFlow. So it's either that Gem binaries for Windows all use MinGW, or that a workaround is created so that anything that communicates with Gem can do it without being compiled in MSVC.

Otherwise, it would mean that GEM users who want to try GF have to reinstall a different GEM than default just to have something that runs with MinGW.

Afaict, GridFlow will never run with MSVC. Well, it might not be using that many GCC extensions, but I haven't counted them. Maybe it's only variable-sized arrays on stack, and variable number of args in macros.
