Hi Dave,
thanks for the feedback.

That would be fine with me. But I suggest that any policy decision for
such a naming change should be done by those projects (MinGW-W64, MinGW,
or both), documented there, a flag day announced, and then libtool
should follow suit, not the other way round.
Or maybe, just maybe, they'll re-merge before it gets that far ...
Cheers,
Ralf
