On a related note, it would be great if someone could update this HOWTO page for building Pd with MinGW:
http://puredata.org/docs/developer/mingw
I started it a while back, but was never successful in getting it to work, so its unfinished.

During my pdp porting effort I have been able to solve the problem with mingw compilation. The trick is to add a flag to gcc, it is called -mms-bitfields.
good to know, thanks. I think it is safe for externals to use that flag and load into pd mingw-compiled without it, unless an external directly accesses t_object's fields, etc? That is not always the case, though. So, the flag should be standard.
Anybody willing to add it to pd-devel? do not want to do this myself, not using mingw for anything but checking that my stuff works there...
