If your goal is cross platform building with ant write a Makefile for the native sections and call the exec task for make. It will save you a lot of time trying to figure all the quirky platform dependent bugs in the cpptasks. If your only going to be building on a specific system and need to cross compile with mingw then the symlinks are the only method that I know of unless you want to extend/patch the compiler tasks to add mingw support.
