I vaguely recall that I tested as well with MinGW when writing v2 of
this patch after MauMau reviewed v1. Btw, just in case, I have just
made working my MinGW box a bit more and re-tested it now. And it
worked :)

Of course someone else than the patch author with a MinGW environment
at hand is invited to test.
