The remedy is simple:

--prefix=`cd /usr/local; pwd -W`

You might want to use your mingw path instead of /usr/local so GCC can 
find the libraries without needing to tell it.  Giving the prefix as I 
have given you will cause the paths in configure to become windows 
absolute paths with forward slash (/) delimiters.
