  Hell yeah!  We're coding the compiler here, we can make it do whatever we
want, so let's make it do what the users will like the best!  :)  I'll have to
leave it to you and the other mingw guys to figure out whether predefines or
preincluding _mingw.h is the best way to go though, I'm not familiar enough
with the internals of the mingw runtime to offer advice on that decision.

    cheers,
