MinGW is just one of those pedantic systems. Requires building and installing GMP;
MPFR before you can even think about unpacking the GCC source tree. As far as
testimonials go for D1, it's really been hit or miss. There have been reported
success, however I've never managed to do it myself (though I *know* the reason is
because of a bad build environment, and not compiler).
