So, we now officially support MinGW building using the autoconf/automake system. (That's cross-compiling, for the new guys in the crowd.) It's not the biggest commit, but it's not anything minor, either; 300+ lines of changes total.
This is not Visual C++ support, although I see no reason why it won't build on VC. This is support for MinGW, which is a port of GCC to Win32. It runs natively, linking to Win32 core runtimes, and acts just like any other application. The catch is that this support is only for automake-based MinGW, which is pretty much limited to Linux cross-compiling. (At some point Derrick and Justin will make a VC-based version for building on Windows, I'm sure.)
In case you were wondering (and I know you weren't,) r38 belongs to Derrick and r39 was accidental and reverted by r40, so they don't get posts. (Well, Derrick was supposed to say something, but he's lazy.)
