Comment(by simonmar):

 I vote for two source tarballs.  Furthermore, I vote for putting the
 mingw64 tarball in a separate repo, that you only have to get on Windows
 (sync-all can manage to do this, I'm sure), and  re-make the ghc-tarballs
 repo so that it doesn't include the mingw64 tarball in the history.  We
 already have logic in sync-all to check for old repo versions, so that
 shouldn't cause any problems.
