Yes, /mingw is mapped to my MinGw installation path (C:\bin\mingw) so
/mingw/bin contains the MinGW binaries.

Yes, /c/Devel/emacs/build is where I put all additional binaries and
libraries required (the -c and -L args in my configure.sh command use
c:/Devel/emacs/include and c:/Devel/emacs/lib instead of
c:/Devel/emacs/build/{include,lib} because I have symlinks).

I'll fix that.
