This topic (the downloads page) was raised in IRC yesterday.

I am preparing to maintain a set of packages for various
distributions (and direct download) containing up-to-date Linux
and Windows toolchains (specifically cross-compilers). Version:

    GCC       : 9.1.0
    binutils  : 2.32
    MinGW-w64 : git-
d793e0 (2019-05-17)

For example, if you're on 32- or 64- bit Windows and wish to
compile for the same architecture, use one of these:

  * https://musl.cc/i686-w64-mingw32-native.zip

  * https://musl.cc/x86_64-w64-mingw32-native.zip

Despite the name (they're part of a larger project) they're just
MinGW-w64 toolchains that run on Windows and target Windows.

And for anyone looking to do Linux development on Windows, these
are also available: https://win.musl.cc/
