mingw32 is the "minimal GNU environment for Win32" -- sort of like Cygwin
ultra-light. As a consequence it should work to run configure on it. In
fact, we already have
checking for Cygwin environment... no
checking for mingw32 environment... no
So I'd be interested to know what happens when you do try it.
Also, what would be the advantage of the mingw32 specific makefiles that
you sent, versus just using the win32 native ones that we already have?

Probably pgsql-cygwin-owner@postgresql.org. But the lists should be back
up by now.
