[vlc-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Require mingw-w64 3.0

Hello,

mingw-w64 2.0 has had several bugs which prevented VLC to build or run properly.

They were fixed in the svn repo, but were not backported to 2.0, thus we 
should require 3.0.

This version has not been released yet, but there are for example debian 
packages in experimental repo:
http://packages.debian.org/experimental/all/mingw-w64-dev/download

buildbot uses that package without problems so far.


tl;dr
I ask for opinions because it would depend on a not yet released version, we 
can't use the release because it is buggy.
