I think you've been using MinGW-w64's native 4.9.1 and 4.9.2; exactly
where did you get them? Here:
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/
I see two likely subdirectories:
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/mingw-w64/mingw-w64-release/
which contains files like 'mingw-w64-v4.0.4.tar.bz2', which can't be
for gcc-4.0.4 AFAICT; and
  
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/Personal%20Builds/
where it looks like they're hosting various people's "personal" builds,
but I was hoping for binaries built by the project's owners.
