Correct.

There may or may not be a TDM-GCC 5.1 release (5.1 being the first in 
the GCC 5 series); right now I try to track the second minor release in 
every major series, so expect TDM-GCC 5.2 at some point in the next 
month or two after the upstream 5.2 release.

My experience in the past with other GCC toolchains was that they tended 
to have enough usable relative search paths that you could still move 
them around wherever you want, as long as you didn't put *anything* at 
the hardcoded locations (/mingw or the like). That said, I haven't tried 
this with a MinGW-w64-based toolchain other than my own in a while.
