I'm happy to see any MinGW build get regular testing for now.  It helps 
resolve behavioral loose ends on my own CMake builds.  Also, CMake 2.4 
hasn't shipped, and until it does there's going to be a perceived 
barrier about CMake builds.  I do intend to put a CMake 2.3 binary up on 
FTP.  Finally, I wouldn't want to discourage you from fully 
understanding MinGW builds, because the more people that understand the 
problem, the less work I will have to do in the long run.

At some point we will want to merge our build efforts though.
