Visiting for triage; I cannot test this, but there was a pull request that added support for x86_64-w64-mingw32.

In any case, @klutzy tested with ./configure --build-triple=i686-w64-mingw32 and said that there is no such build triple; so I'm closing this. (Reopen if I'm wrong, preferably with the exact steps to reproduce. :) )

No, you are correct, there is no such build of "i686-w64" ... the correct build would be "x86_64-w64". Closing this issue is fine. Thanks Huon !
