Ah, I hadn't seen that! I didn't test my patch beyond building, so
there may quite possibly be more to it.

For now my mingw-w64 packages use /usr/i686-w64-mingw32 (for Win32)
and /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32 (Win64), which is what I used in the
patch. It would indeed make sense to follow the multiarch approach,
especially since binutils and gcc now support them (thanks to Steve
Langasek's work). https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchCross specifies how
things should work for cross-compiling, and the paths would then be
/usr/{include,lib}/{i686,x86_64}-w64-mingw32... I'll probably go for
that approach once the current set of mingw-w64 packages are in
unstable (I've got a sponsor who is currently uploading them).

I'll provide another patch to rejig the installation paths when they
change!

Regards,

Stephen
