For what it's worth, I had a problem with a usage of std::bind with 4.4.5,
specifically with the build:

   
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/sezero_20101003/mingw-w64-bin_x86_64-mingw_20101003_sezero.zip/download

I upgraded to 4.5.2, and the problem went away, so I didn't think much
about it anymore.

(I'm not aware of any reason to use 4.4.5 instead of 4.5, and, at least
for me the std::bind issue makes 4.5 the better choice.)

And, by the way, thanks for making your builds available.  Very nice.
