Hmm, I've actually started the rebuild. It actually finished much

no idea why it did that. Most probably I touched some file by
mistake.
It should have at least rebuilt "zlib libpng jpeg libmng" (the qt
deps) if gcc was built. Have you modified the deps on those packages
also? That behaviour is almost more surprising than the original
rebuild! If you somehow touched src/gcc.mk, then all it's dependents
should rebuild.
My MXE tree is about a year old though (I have tons of settings
in the *.mk files that really I don't want to lose) [...]
What sort of settings are they? Is there a way we could make it
easier to keep updated with mxe and keep your local settings?
Not sure how easy it would be to automate this. Here's a good
example (qt.mk) of the kind of changes I'm doing:

For the configure options, we could add a similar variable that is
appended to our standard set. Later options should override earlier
ones, so all the "-no-*" options can be consolidated.
