I am interested in compiling just libmng alone with its minimum dependencies. 
Try compiling just libmng from a clean installation. The compilation fails 
complaining about lcms. Compile lcms2 (the same version in cross-mingw-env) 
first and it will compile with no modification (no need for lcms1). I guess 
that usually lcms2 gets compiled previously in the build sequence and because 
of that it gave no problem until now.
