I checked the tree and Corinna cleaned up some a few years ago. I already checked winsup/doc/ and there were no other substantive uses of MinGW unless you would prefer *ALL* mentions of MinGW be suffixed with -w64. I did not look closely at cygwin-htdocs, as git complained when I tried to update, so I wiped that repo, but it looks like links.html and categories in packaging-hint-files.html which includes Mingw, needed updated. Is there a definitive file with a list of all currently valid categories in calm, cygport, setup, or shared somewhere? I may get to reclone, check, and patch htdocs later. -- Take care.
