mingw : version 4.9.3 Architecture : x86_64 Threads : Win32 Exception : seh Build revision : 0 and put in path, so I get : $ g++ --version g++.exe (x86_64-win32-seh-rev0, Built by MinGW-W64 project) 4.9.3 Then configured via : ./configure --host=i686-w32-mingw32 --bindir=... --mandir=... --libdir=...
