I built successfully using mingw32 just now (I haven't exercised it,
but it compiles and gives a REPL). First, I had to swap out ECL's gc
for Boehm 7.2.alpha4. After that, I hit a problem in unixsys.d with
the use of "environ" as a variable name. In the mingw environment,
stdlib.h environ is #defined to expand to, ultimately,
(*__p__environ()), breaking several places which use environ as a
variable name. The attached patch renames them to "env".
