Ah, right. I tend to forget that I have those right at my fingertips under
Debian (and Ubuntu at work):

edd@joe:~$ wajig search mingw
mingw32 - Minimalist GNU win32 (cross) compiler
mingw32-binutils - Minimalist GNU win32 (cross) binutils
mingw32-runtime - Minimalist GNU win32 (cross) runtime
edd@joe:~$

Thanks for the reminder re cross-builds. This could be useful for other
projects too. And I used this without too much trouble some years ago.

Now, you didn't say that you managed to build QL with this, did you?

Cheers, Dirk
