The changelog snippet given above doesn't explain how this bug was
fixed: gcc-mingw-w64 now uses the upstream default exception handling
(SJLJ for 32-bit Windows, SEH for 64-bit Windows), and provides two
toolchains, one using Windows threads and one using POSIX threads. The
required threading model can be selected using update-alternatives; the
default is Windows threads to minimise the change since Debian's last
stable release. A specific threading model can also be used for a given
compilation by suffixing the compiler with either -posix or -win32, e.g.
i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-posix to explicitly use POSIX threads.
