Google around for posts by me and other about build wine with mingw.
I've been meaning to document it for years but never gotten around to
it. You either need to build on windows with a mingw or have two trees
on Linux, one with the host tools and the other configured for the
cross-compiler.
That would be the framework. I appreciate the response. Is this
something that either now or in the future will be officially
supported by wine, or even a true goal of wine, or is it more of a
side project for you and some others?
