Actually, you can do just --with-default-msvcrt=msvcrt - the distinction
between msvcrt vs msvcrt-os is handled within mingw-w64-crt/configure.ac -
so we don't need to expose that detail to users in this doc.
Same thing in the paragraph below, we could just name it "msvcrt" there.

Nit: Add the missing newline here.
Other than that, I think this looks quite reasonable if we want to go down
this path, and good to have some sort of official docs on the matter.
