     Type:  defect   |      Status:  new          
 Priority:  high     |   Milestone:  PostGIS 2.0.0
Component:  postgis  |     Version:  trunk        
 Keywords:  mingw64  |  
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------

Comment(by pramsey):

 I found a reference to msft vsnprintf that indicates that it returns
 negative on failure to fit a write within the limit. Perhaps the mingw32
 links to a special libc so we don't call the msft version, while mingw64
 links to the system libc. I'm patching and testing now.
