In the last couple of days I've been working with upstream mingw-w64
developers to resolve all known build failures (with exception of the
ones which are caused by winpthreads). We're currently at a point where
we feel confident with the current state. I plan on doing one more test
mass rebuild (without winpthreads) to make sure all build failures are
resolved now.

Here's what I would like to propose:

1. Update mingw-w64 in rawhide and f19-updates-testing to
   today's snapshot
2. Kick off a test mass rebuild without winpthreads to make
   sure there are no more build failures
3. Once we've got a confirmation that all build failures are
   really resolved, push these updated mingw-w64 packages to
   f18-updates (with buildroot overrides in place for the time
   the packages have to spend in updates-testing)
4. Afterwards the wine maintainer can build and push updated
   versions of mingw-wine-gecko and wine itself to f18

Does this sound like a good plan to you folks?
