OK, sorry about that, I'll do that next time.

SF is sadly lacking an FTP interface (why don't they have anonymous
read-only sftp?) to make recursive downloading even easier.

OK, I was wondering how to transition 4.5.x to 4.6.x for mingw-w64 when
the time comes, pthreads-win32 will be removed in favor of winpthreads,
they're not exactly ABI compatible. Right now, only libgomp is using
pthreads-win32.

C++ ABI for 4.6.x has also changed for mingw* (including mingw.org) with
the introduction of thiscall, not sure if this will affect Cygwin itself.
