Re: [rust-dev] Rust windows bots have transitioned to mingw-w64
It turns out this was premature and the bots are still using the old toolchain. I'll keep working on it.

Re: [rust-dev] Rust windows bots have transitioned to mingw-w64
I have a new bot up now that is *definitely* using the new toolchain. Haven't completed a build yet, but I think it's going to work. On 04/11/2014 04:16 PM, Thad Guidry wrote: LOL.
