PS: I think using "Windows" that way can also get us in trademark trouble.
We'd have to say "Cross-compiler targeting Microsoft Windows" or something
equally stupid. Now of course using "Winblow$" or something like that
instead could avoid us the trademark lawsuit, but then RH Legal will freak
out about "disparaging". ;-) So I think "MinGW cross compiler" is the best
solution to keep the name short, and then description can cite the
trademarks in a way which is clearly fair use.
What do you think?
