Fedora bundles mingw toolchains (just a yum install away). It should be
easy to confirm that --host=i686-pc-mingw32 doesn't break that way. Last
I tried, the resulting gdbserver even works under Wine. Don't recall if
GDB itself works.

Putting the series on an accessible git branch would make it easier
to call for testers, I think.
