actually we use and older version of mingw on rhel:
http://www.lfarkas.org/linux/packages/redhat/5/i386/
which works, but i'd like to test these new packages too. for me it'd be
much better if you can upload somewhere your src.rpm files and i can try
to rebuild them on rhel-5 (and may be other win32 packages like openssl,
gdk, glib, gtk, etc.).
