Fedora has switched from the i686-pc-mingw32 toolchain to the

cannot currently be built on F17.

The attached draft patch fixes most of the issues with the build.  (I
just added the necessary mingw64-i686-* libraries to Ports.)  ntdll.h
needs some more work though; perhaps JonY could provide some input?

Can you list some of the issues you've encountered with ntdll.h?

1) ddk/ntapi.h does not exist.


2) DDK headers can't find other DDK headers which they require. IMHO those should be changed from <> includes to "" includes in mingw64-headers.

3) Once I circumvent those, I get a ton of redefinition and conflicting declaration errors between winnt.h and ddk/ntddk.h. Its too long to list here, so I suggest you give it a try.
