I would have expected that when building for mingw, Wine would use the Wine headers and libraries. Otherwise, as mentioned above, if someone adds tests that rely on items that are not in the mingw headers then the tests will not be built for the conformance tests, as has been seen recently. Also, what happens with the widl generated headers? - Reece
