Hi Daniel,

I just updated the stable branch with those and two other packages
(gdb & libntlm)

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/mingw-cross-env/rev/4306db9d465e

Cheers,

Tony

Thanks Tony,

Just as an aside, I just set up a jenkins server at our company and am putting the ros' mingw_cross build (its only building qt, boost and log4cxx) on that as a weekly automated build to check for breakages. Maybe that's the sort of thing that the whole stable branch could make use of?

I can't make the server public, but I could run a build on stable testing all its packages. I'm not overly familiar with it yet, but I suspect it could easily be set up with email reports.
