Hi @ccssmmww ,
Sadly we don't really support MinGW at the moment... There has been discussions about it and it's just been low on the priority list for now... sorry about that.

@KaibaLopez @wps132230: we are very interested in mingw-w64 as a supported platform. Several open source language ecosystems (R, Julia, Rust to a lesser degree) rely on mingw-w64 to build the entire package matrix for Windows, and so downstream SDK users/embedders like us (core, S3) have an increasing demand to support this target, to allow simple installation by end-users. I believe several people from the Apache Arrow project would also be interested, cc @nealrichardson.

What can we do to help get #1333 merged (cc @trilader), and possibly add a CI target to avoid regression?
