It looks like the winscard.def file (which is used to generate a .a/.lib
file) for the i686 target doesn't exist in the v1.0 branch of the
mingw-w64 project [1]. However, it does exist in the development branch
of the mingw-w64 project [2]. The fedora-cross testing repository is
based on the v1.0 branch of the mingw-w64 project.

If there's enough demand for it I can rebase my work to the development
branch of the mingw-w64 project although I don't know how stable it
currently is. Perhaps somebody who is more involved in the mingw-w64
project can comment on this?
