No, this is one of the reasons I felt it worthwhile to spend two days
creating a cross-compiler... I build on linux and then ssh to a cygwin
machine to test my binaries. *Much* more comfortable setup. I'm
documenting the ordeal here:
http://www.xwt.org/creating.a.mingw.crosscompiler.html
It's not much of an issue anyways; mingw can't host builds since it's
not POSIX-compliant.

Sweet.
