If you have a linux box, you can take the one from gettext and try...
I don't have any other clue there...
Also as my box died a few weeks ago, I have a tmp workstation on which
I don't have Windows and can't make any test at the moment (that is
until the new laptop is delivered).

I haven't had the time to check it yet for the same reason as above,
but it's on my TODO list. The problem here is that cross compiling for
Windows from a Linux box works and it needs to continue to work, so I
have to be carefull and do a lot of tests, which I can't at the
moment.
