Don't worry: I wrote the above (incorrectly) assuming that you want a
Windows binary, that you can build on Windows (at least in theory) and
that you assumed cross-compilation from Linux is necessary (as it was
once upon a time).
If you don't want to use a Windows box to compile, you will have to
cross-compile from Linux, there are other people who do this more
regularly than me (I never do it).

Sorry for making too many assumptions, Carl Eugen
