CMake has a list of toolsets to search for. IIRC for the Ninja generator
MinGW takes precedence, just make sure that its `bin' directory is
listed in PATH, but if after doing that CMake picks VS first, delete and
recreate the build directory and set this environment variables before
invoking CMake:

set CC=gcc
set CXX=g++
