Andrew,

I am trying to make pre compiled binaries so that,in case users of my
project(on windows) do not have a build environment configured,they
can use the pre compiled binaries to use my project.The best way to do
this seems to be cross compile.

I tried overriding CC in makefile of my project and setting the value
of CC to MinGW C compiler,but,it gave errors(header files not found).

What changes should I make?
