Isn't that the complete issue?  My experience (under Wine, but the principle
is the same) is you must have mingw32-make.exe on your PATH in order for -G
"MinGW Makefiles" to work.  So you will have to be careful of dependencies,
but you should be able to download and unpack mingw32-make.exe from the
normal SF location for that (under mingw) while keeping the normal MinGW gcc
compilers off your PATH (since you want to use the different compilers,
MinGW-W32 and MinGW-W64).
