I didn't upload a new w32api, I just re-used the existing MinGW one. I 
see now that the text above reads as the very list of files that I 
uploaded, but it's not. Let me rephrase:

I created a new toolchain for MSYS based on GCC 3.4.4.

To install it, unpack the following new packages under the MSYS root:

MSYS gcc
    gcc-3.4.4-1-msys-1.0.12-bin.tar.lzma
MSYS binutils
    binutils-2.19.51-1-msys-1.0.12-bin.tar.lzma
MSYS Base System
    msysCORE-1.0.12-1-msys-1.0.12-dev.tar.lzma

In addition, unpack the following MinGW package, but again under the 
MSYS root, so that MSYS gcc can find it:

MinGW API for MS-Windows
   w32api-3.14-mingw32-dev.tar.gz (or newer)

Sorry for the confusion, and hope this clears it up.
