"MinGW" has lots of baggage associated with it.  It also conflicts
with the name of just one upstream project, whereas we are actually
using many upstream projects and MinGW code is only a tiny fraction of
the total.

We also want to expand the project to cover Win64 and Darwin (if we
can make that work).

Let's think of a new name for Fedora 12.

The rules:

(1) We cannot use trademarked words like "Windows" in the project
name.

(2) The name must be unique, easy to pronounce, hard to confuse, and
available to register as a domain name.

(3) Don't want to interfere with or get confused with the other
cross-compilers in Fedora, ie. the ones for embedded platforms.

My vote is for:

[Fedora] Consumer Cross-Compiler [Collection]
  (abbreviated as CCC or CCCC)
