I’d suggest starting with the tutorial [1] to get a working mxe. Build 
the minimal cross-compiler (`make gcc`) and see if you can adapt the 
capnproto instructions [2] based on the “Autotools" section of the
mxe tutorial.

If that goes well, you might see that you need a native `capnp` to build
the cross-compiled version (also mentioned in capnproto docs). If you
have the native version or `wine` installed, it will probably work.

If it doesn’t, that’s exactly the sort of question we can help you with;
raise an issue on github [3] about native tools required to bootstrap 
cross libs and you’ll get some responses to help you progress.

Cheers,

Tony
