This is still not enough to ensure successful compilation on mingw. I get
this error:

gcc-3 -mno-cygwin -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I..  -DGNULIB_STRICT_CHECKING=1 
-I/usr/local/mingw/include -Wall  -g -O2 -MT openpty.o -MD -MP -MF 
.deps/openpty.Tpo -c -o openpty.o openpty.c
In file included from openpty.c:20:
./pty.h:45:21: termios.h: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [openpty.o] Error 1

Likewise on MSVC 9.

To reproduce: use
  $ ./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=/tmp/testdir \
                  --with-tests --with-c++-tests --single-configure \
                  --avoid=pt_chown openpty ptsname_r
