Greetings! I recently became interested in cross-compiling software from Debian to Windows. To my delight, I found the gcc-mingw-w64 & mingw-w64-tools packages already in Debian (thanks Stephen!). However, I see that they are using a workaround of a /usr/${triplet}/ path, rather than

This is an old bug. But at the debconf multiple people thought it has been fixed already, while I don't think it was. One small difference is that in the near future armhf/armel might be a valid cpu architecture for mingw-w64 port. The proposal over here http://wiki.debian.org/Mingw-W64 needs
