     4If you want to get to the last step fast to immediately start compiling PostGIS without having to compile the dependencies,
     5you can download our prepared mingw64+msys build environment which you can download from  [http://www.bostongis.com/postgisstuff/ming64.zip] and for 32-bit (for PostgreSQL 9.2+ (32-bit 9.1 and below have to use old msys chain) [http://www.bostongis.com/postgisstuff/ming32.zip]

     7== 1. Installing Minimalist GNU for Windows-w64 (MinGW-w64) ==
     8The mingw64 for build 32-bit binaries only works for PostgreSQL 9.2+.  There are changes they did in 9.2 that were never backported to 9.1 and below. So to compile PostGIS for 32-bit for 9.1 and below you need to use the regular old Msys instructions. mingw64 chain will work for 64-bit 9.0-9.3 and for 32-bit 9.2-9.3.
     9
     10We will use MingGW-w64 toolchain instead of the standard MingW since it has support for both 32-bit and 64-bit compiling.
     11For this discussion we are using the binaries built for running on Windows. We haven't tried the builds designed for building windows binaries under ''Linux/Unix''.

    416There are issues with GEOS compile above 4.5.4 or so, in 4.6.1+, the make check crashes and so does
    517PostGIS tests when compiled with GCC 4.6+.  That said you should pick a build lower than GCC 4.6. We like GCC 4.5.4
    618Issues are documented in http://trac.osgeo.org/geos/ticket/518 (also similar issue compiling Geos under windows 64-bit SDK http://trac.osgeo.org/geos/ticket/528 )
