None whatsoever, is the idea...
Just that I started doing binary packages (with installers),
before GDC had moved to the new home and provided them too.
I think the only difference now is the format: .tbz vs .exe ?
(I created it using the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System)

I think that's a much older GDC version, but I haven't checked:
http://cygwin.com/packages/gcc-gdc/
Note here that Cygwin and MinGW are not exactly the same thing.

Unfortunately I'm not 100% aware of the options that David
used to create the MinGW builds of GDC, on the dgcc page. :-(
But for my own builds (gdcwin), I used the very same options
(+ D language) as the other GCC packages available for MinGW:
http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/mingw/gcc-3.4.2-build.sh
http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/mingw/gcc-3.4.5-build.sh
However, I changed the languages to: --enable-languages=c,c++,d
Should have posted this information on the site long ago, sorry.
