We don't provide any binaries for mingw->linux cross compilers, which is
why we ALSO don't provide any specific source packages for that.

Now, you can take our mingw->mingw gcc and binutils source packages, and
configure them however you like, of course. But if you're going to do
that, wouldn't it make more sense to get the source package directly
from gcc.org, for this unique (and unsupported-by-us) binary you're
going to build?
