Right, which is what I said.

I think you mean "before". But I did not say that this was the wrong
place (since I was the one that suggested the place). Only that
pedantically the new code could/should be tweaked like this:
- #ifdef __MINGW32__
+ #if defined (__MINGW32__) || defined (__CYGWIN__)
# ifdef _WIN32_WINNT
# if _WIN32_WINNT < 0x0501
# undef _WIN32_WINNT
# define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0501
# endif
# else
# define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0501
# endif
#endif /* __MINGW32__ */

Right, like I said.
