Hi all,

I tried building the latest flac.git on Windows with MinGW just
today, and got the following build error: (I had to copy-paste
this 'by hand', so there might be a few small mistakes)

This probably has something to do with the recently merged utf8
patches? FLAC 1.3.1 didn't have this problem.
