>Description:
The port is marked broken; seems that nobody even tried to fix it and nobody cares.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/devel/mingw32-gcc
make install
>Fix:
Patch one buggy include (attached).
I don't care if you don't like the patch - it just works and gcc installs. 
I can't even understand how people can update the port and then just mark it broken - what is the reason of keeping broken ports when the previous version was working??? Who has given them these rights?
