One issue just occurred to me. The HLSL backend requires a hefty 
dependency to compile, the DirectX SDK (not the tiny version advertised 
in the readme). This doesn't seem to be too problematic for MinGW, but 
it is a big download (nearly 600 MB). Now that tiny version is likely 
on shady ground anyway (I can't even find it at its advertised 
location), so maybe this is fine. This probably isn't a show-stopper 
but just something to consider.

Michał, if you're listening, was it complicated to get MinGW to 
cooperate with that SDK?
