 Hello!

I've imported MinGW cross-development tools from pkgsrc-wip.
They work.

At least I'm able to cross-build PortAudio and build primitive
audio player. The player works under WINE and on real NT5
(MS Windows XP).

I propose to remove old MinGW tools in cross/i386-mingw32.
I couldn't make them work 2 years ago and went using WIP,
I don't remember the last time they built either.
Unless anyone objects I'm asking to remove them before branch,
perhaps during the upcoming freeze.

I've used the older successfully for some time, but I've been unable to build it.

The newer version works for me, but I have a few observations:

With the newer version, why does it install in a different location?

i.e. /usr/pkg/cross/bin/i386--mingw32-gcc (new) vs /usr/pkg/cross/bin/i386-mingw32-gcc (old)?

I note I now need -lstdc++ even with plain old C programs.
