If you're using the Ubuntu mingw-w64 packages, that's normal, they don't use
a sysroot.

I'm working on making mingw-w64 a partial architecture for Debian and Ubuntu,
so eventually you'll get loads of packages in the distributions using
multiarch. In the meantime I'm only shipping mingw-w64.
If you add headers to /usr/{i686,x86_64}-w64-mingw32/include and libraries
to /usr/{i686,x86_64}-w64-mingw32/lib, the compiler will pick them up. The
latest version of mingw-w64 also ships {i686,x86_64}-w64-mingw32-pkg-config
so you can also add .pc files to /usr/{i686,x86_64}-w64-mingw32/lib/pkgconfig
and have them picked by configure scripts too.

Stephen
