Thanks for your contribution.  I think it is small enough to be
accepted without a copyright assignment, especially if you follow the
advice below.  I'm not completely sure though.

A few remarks and questions:

1. Please update the copyright year of new files or files that you changed.

2. Please remove any empty variables in your .mh and .mt files.

3. Is MH_CFLAGS=-D_POSIX in mingw32.mh really necessary?

4. Your nm-mingw32.h file seems to be a verbatim copy if nm-cygwin.h.
   Please use nm-cygwin.h instead.

5. All your tm-mingw32.h file does in including tm-cygwin.h.  Actually
   I think you can just use cygwin.mt instead of mingw32.mt.  I expect
   that MinGW uses the same convention for returning structs as
   Cygwin, so that will actually fix a few bugs.

6. Why is the line

   #define getkey getch

   in xm-mingw32.h needed?

7. Looks like ser-mingw32.c is doing nothing.  AFAICT it shouldn't be
   necessary.

Cheers,

Mark
