On MinGW (gcc 4.5.2):

Summary:

  PASS  10195
  FAIL      6

FAILs are 

The usual ones for MinGW:
-------------------------
- log2: Nan vs Inf

- mappers.cc:
>>>>> processing

  ***** test
 charset = char (0:127);
 result = false (1, 128);
 result(33:127) = true;
 assert (all (isprint (charset) == result));
!!!!! test failed
assert (all (isprint (charset) == result)) failed
shared variables 
  scalar structure containing the fields:

    rt2 =  1.4142
    rt3 =  1.7321

- imread.m: invalid image file: Magick++ exception: Magick: Unable to access
configuration file (magic.mgk) reported by magick/blob.c:1830
(GetConfigureBlob)

- speed.m: "All running times were zero."

plus a new FAIL (for MinGW): 
--------------
in test_system:
:
<snip>
 # Restore original umask value
 umask (orig_umask);
!!!!! test failed
assert (deblank (s2.modestr),"----------") expected
----------
but got
-r--r--r--


I think none of these are very serious.
