Description Vitaly Novichkov 2017-02-13 23:27:45 UTC 
When I have been retreived latest revision (b2d018b8d9ba at February 14 2017), and tried to build it everywhere (Linux, OS X and Windows), it fails to be build under regular non-w64 MinGW:

========================================================================
In file included from src/SDL.c:24:0:
src/core/windows/SDL_windows.h:67:28: error: unknown type name 'REFIID'
 extern BOOL WIN_IsEqualIID(REFIID a, REFIID b);
                            ^
src/core/windows/SDL_windows.h:67:38: error: unknown type name 'REFIID'
 extern BOOL WIN_IsEqualIID(REFIID a, REFIID b);
                                      ^
make: *** [build/SDL.lo] Error 1
========================================================================

Commenting of the 67's line fixes the build. Suggested to add macro to don't use this declaration on MinGW.org's MinGW.

I believe this is fixed now, thanks!
