We have a submission of cross-compilation builds using MingW:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2626

If somebody could update the ebuilds to the most recent version of MingW,
and have them follow the latest policy (see
http://www.gentoo.org/~karltk/POLICY.txt and skel.ebuild), and run lintool
(dev-util/lintool-0.2.4 or later) on them, I'll squeeze them in ASAP.

We're currently working on a scheme for cross-compilers. The primary
testing candidate until now has been a cross-compiler for the
sh4-linux-gnu target, but we need more targets, so if anybody has the
necessary time, please don't hesistate to finish up set of working ebuilds
for mingw, and I'll take it from there.


Kind regards,

Karl T
