Hi

can't really tell as I don't have windows. Does it fail for both SDL1 
and SD2 builds ?

I cross compile under Linux using mingw and I never saw any of the 
problem you mention (neither with the daily build from antartica.no).

In case no one has the answer, maybe you could setup a small VM image 
with a minimal linux distro and just cross compile under linux too and 
use the resulting binary under windows ?
