suppose you make some cross compilation development. everywhere you put
%{_mingw32_make} into the spec file but wouldn't like to always run it
through rpmbuild you can use mingw32-make in the working directory.
No, I don't mean this. Why don't we remove both the _mingw32_make
macro and the mingw32-make script? Any usage of this macro/script
would be replaced by a simple 'make' command.
