We have a cross-compilation problem in general right now, no?

Thinking a little about this, I would think that you would need a C
cross-compiler, and a Guile cross-compiler. So Guile's build needs a way
to specify a Guile to use during the build process.

To delete, git push origin :wip-1-8-mingw-build. (I'm not suggesting
that the branch be deleted.)

I don't know. It would only be for purposes of gitweb/cgit, I don't
think git has this concept.
