Hey Mersus, thanks for trying the MinGW build of Ruby!

Right now 1.1.x releases of Mongrel are not compatible with MinGW
build, mostly becasue I forgot to backport the updated RUBY_PLATFORM
regexp from 1.2 branch

Also, you need the MinGW compiler around to be able to build the
native extension of both mongrel and fastthread (being the last one a
dependency of mongrel gem).

I'll fix the RUBY_PLATFORM issues in 1.1 sourcecode.

Thanks for reporting this back.
