I seem to have gcc 3.4.2  in MinGW. I had some problems with something 
that I do not remember now -- some small configuration thing --, but 
otherwise the compilation went ok. I used the instructions I found on 
web (e.g. http://www.remotesensing.org/gdal/faq.html) that does not 
produce a DLL. I believe that's one reason why the wrapper dll's are so big.

MinGW does not seem to have a mingw.dll, which includes all its libraries?
