I know of MSYS, but it is not very pleasant to use, if only because it
is extremely slow. When I need to build things for windows, I much
prefer cross compiling to using MSYS. I also think that cross
compilation is more useful than native mingw build alone - there are
patches for cross compilation, but I don't know their current status,
