Ralf is right - the point of open source is that anyone should be able to
scratch their own itch.  We don't have unlimited time, so the more work
you do in scratching your itch, the easier it makes our job to just
include your patch rather than repeat the work for something that is not
scratching our itch.  By encouraging you to submit better patches, we are
trying to empower you, rather than doing it all ourselves.

Personally, I've never even tried compiling for mingw32ce; not even Cygwin
is brave enough to support a limited platform, since it is primarily for
embedded systems and not broad-scale development.  You have the most
expertise with this platform, so if we are going to support it, we need a
lot of effort from you.
