The failing command is trying to compile the PCH. This means that
we're including a large number of libstdc++ headers in a row. One of

nothing has included <windows.h>. Later, something includes
gthr-default.h; on this platform that pulls in <windows.h>, which
eventually #define's min. Then later we get <limits>, which now sees
the definition.
I see, but I still don't get why this is worse than time ago, when the
undefs where placed in the middle of stl_algobase.h and nowhere else.
Do you?
Forgot: in fact, I don't see why the specific scenario above can happen:
<limits> now includes c++config.h, which (now, not in old releases)
undefs #min and #max again...
