[cfe-dev] libstdc++ Windows port

[Justin Holewinski]

Sorry for resurrecting a few-month-old thread, but I'm curious about the
current status of the Windows version of libc++.  From this and other
threads, it seems the library should be buildable using mingw-w64, but I am
immediately hitting missing header file errors when compiling (notably
pthread.h).  It seems like mingw32 has the pthread bits while mingw-w64
does not, yet mingw-w64 has the xlocinfo.h header file while mingw32 does
not; so neither distribution is sufficient in itself.

I realize the Windows version is far from complete and not necessarily
surprised by these issues, I would just like to know the current status
(what *should* be working), and where effort is currently being spent.

By the way, I was using GIT head from a couple of hours ago.
