I haven't seen any activity on the above email, and I am curious if:
1) It was missed (and this really does affect people)
2) Nobody cross-compiles using the mingw32-* ports (it is really very
handy!)
3) Nobody really cares that mingw32-gcc will move from 3.4.5 --> 4.2.0
Please, if this affects you test out the above port tarball! Otherwise,
this will end up going in and not take into account any problems that
might arise in your environment.
