Well I think that treating cygwin and mingw as separate platforms is
something that is creeping into many GNU projects. (Well I suppose that
development is not really confined to GNU projects). But I think if
both cygwin and mingw will be supported that it is important recognize
them as different platforms. Therefor it seems any project would be
well advised to avoid the term 'windows' and use 'cygwin' and 'mingw'
respectively.
IOW, I'd suggest ser-mingw.c instead.
