That is untrue: each dw2 build is just additional to the regular builds. I
ensured all the dw2 builds are now in gcc-dw2-<version>-release
subdirectories, and the normal (sjlj) are in gcc-<version>-release.

I assume this is some mingw-w64 trunk (v3) addition. For that MinGW-w64
version, I recommend the gcc-4.8-unstable build, which is pretty near final
release and will be ABI compatible with the final GCC 4.8.0. I CC'ed the
mingw-w64 list because they will be able to help you with this problem.
(Kai or JonY or Jacek or sezero or whoever, see above). I'm guessing a
little test program that shows this issue will be welcome and expedite the
resolution of this problem.
