How to choose MXE target:
<ol>
<li>if you want a 64 bit Windows executable,
statically linked into one big executable:
use MXE_TARGET x86_64-w64-mingw32.static;</li>
<li>if you want a 64 bit Windows executable,
splitted in an executable and dependant dlls
use MXE_TARGET x86_64-w64-mingw32.shared;</li>
<li>if you want a 32 bit Windows executable,
statically linked into one big executable:
use MXE_TARGET i686-w64-mingw32.static;</li>
<li>if you want a 32 bit Windows executable,
splitted in an executable and dependant dlls
use MXE_TARGET i686-w64-mingw32.shared.</li>
</ol>
Remark: the 'w64-mingw32' in those names are left-overs from
historical evolutions in the open source cross-compilation world
and refer in no way to the result being 64 or 32 bit Windows.
