Hi @svnpenn
I think the main reason for this not being supported is that no one on the development team have
ever done a build like that or there have been any past requests for it.
If its only u_char thats the issue, then perhaps the define can be moved to php.h (in php-src/main),
where a lot of cross OS compatibility macros and types also are defined.

Description:
------------
Currently you can build PHP with Linux, Cygwin and Visual Studio. However
Mingw-w64 [1] is currently not supported. It would be invoked using:
./configure --host x86_64-w64-mingw32
or similar. You can tell for sure that is it not currently supported by looking
at "u_char". Mingw-w64 does not define this, same as Visual Studio. PHP accounts
for this with "win32/php_stdint.h" [2]:
typedef unsigned __int8 u_char;
However this same file cannot be used with Mingw-w64 [3]:
#error "Use this header only with Microsoft Visual C++ compilers!"
