Hi, I've been trying out the new cross compiler framework from the repository
located at: http://build1.openftd.org/fedora-cross/fedora-cross.repo on Fedora
14

I got an error when trying to install mingw32-curl saying there was a missing
provides(wldap32.dll). So I added Provides: mingw32(wldap32.dll) to the
mingw32-filesystem package(and similarly for the mingw64-filesystem package)
and after rebuilding, curl would install fine.

Looking at the changelog:

* Thu Nov 13 2008 Richard Jones <rjones at redhat.com> - 35-1
- Added mingw32(wldap32.dll) pseudo-provides.

So it seems like it was there at some point but nothing in the changelog
indicating why it is no longer.

Anyway, hope this is relevant and helps.
