I believe both I and Gerrit made a typo in the directory name.  It should
be /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw32 (not i686-pc-mingw).

Doesn't look like you have gcc-mingw-20030911-2 installed.

There is (gcc-mingw-20030911-2), but it's apparently broken.  Following
Gerrit's suggestions (substituting i686-pc-mingw32 for i686-pc-mingw)
should give you a working 3.3.1 gcc-mingw.
