Yes.  So?  We build that compiler from the same tree (as a simple
cross), so it's still the same problem.  We still have to build those
libraries somehow, we still need to have them in source control, etc.
Our build farm likes to see a monolithic source tree, and we already
support building cygwin out of that tree, building mingw out of it is
a minor change.

(actually, we build four compilers out of that tree:
	linux-linux-linux
	linux-linux-mingw
	linux-linux-arm
	linux-mingw-arm)
