I just don’t know how to use the MSVC triple with the MinGW toolchain, as using the x86_64-pc-windows-msvc triple seems to somehow remove Clang’s ability to find MinGW headers like stdio.h or pthread.h. Our discussion on GitHub has some more details of what I tried in that direction: https://github.com/gnustep/libobjc2/pull/186#issuecomment-735449495 <https://github.com/gnustep/libobjc2/pull/186#issuecomment-735449495> I don’t really understand the interplay between target triples and toolchains, but I wonder whether your suggestion works here given that GNUstep requires MinGW.
