I'd like to cross-compile to native Windows 32 bit executables.  So
I'd install mingw64-i686-gcc-core even tho it says "GCC for Win64
toolchain" - correct?

And then ./configure  --host=i686-w64-mingw32
or use some other host value?


nit-picky, but should the FAQ be updated to remove "mingw-gcc"?

6.13 How do I compile a Win32 executable that doesn't use Cygwin?
The compilers provided by the mingw-gcc, mingw64-i686-gcc, and
mingw64-x86_64-gcc packages link against standard Microsoft DLLs
instead of Cygwin.

Thanks,
Lee
