All things being equal I would LIKE for the autoconf stuff to work for
everyone, everywhere, insofar as that's reasonable.

If someone (hint hint niXman...) were to debug this problem, or work
with the MinGW-autoconf-knowledgeable folks to debug it, and provide a
fix or patch, that would be most welcome.

But as Eli says, if you're not able or willing to do that then using
build_w32.bat is a good workaround until someone else can.
