Some versions of MinGW-w64 such as 5.3.1 and 6.2.0 produce bad code
with -O2 or -O3 causing a random driver crash when running programs
that use GLSL. Most Mesa demos in the glsl/ directory trigger the
bug, but not the fragcoord.c test.
Use a #pragma to force -O1 for this file for later MinGW versions.
Luckily, this is basically one-time setup code. I suspect the bug
is related to the sheer size of this file.
This should let us move to newer versions of MinGW-w64 for Mesa.
