Description of problem:
The glib configure macros will not detect glib correctly.  Part of the problem
is that the \mingw paths are not available inside Wine.

The part this bug is concerned about, is that the glib macros require a working
touch binary.

This can be as simple as:

#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <utime.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  int i;
  struct utimbuf u;
  u.actime = time (NULL);
  u.modtime = time (NULL);

for (i = 1; i < argc; i++)
    {
      int fd = open (argv[i], O_WRONLY | O_EXCL | O_CREAT, 0600);
      if (fd == -1)
        {
          if ((errno == EACCES || errno == EISDIR)
              && utime (argv[i], &u) == -1)
            perror ("touch");
        }
      else
        close (fd);
    }
}

and (if bug 513819 is fixed, which is a prerequisite anyway) it should be
placed in c:\windows so that a more complete mingw installation including GNU
touch would override it.
