From: Ryan Pavlik <rpav...@iastate.edu> If the target platform isn't in a list of platforms we know don't use a setuid binary, we try to test if we can chown something to root.
This test possibly won't give the right answer if we are cross-compiling, which is common for the MinGW target. This patch adds MinGW to the list of platforms we know don't use a setuid binary.
