RE: [xml] cross compileing to win32 using mingw/gcc

Good Morning.

Coffee, anyone? No? Well, then...

I have never tried the GCC cross-compiler, but rumors are that it works.
Which host platform would you use for cross-compiling? Linux? My belief
was that mingw is a GCC incarnation that runs only on Windows. Are you
saying that mingw is available as a cross-compiler on Unix as well?

Trio's NaN and Inf handling routines are used by those components, I bet
those floating-point horrors come to hunt us again. But wait... does
that mean that it works when those trio, http and ftp components are
disabled?

No, it should work with any combination of features.

Hey, Feel free to report on your progress with this.
