+ - Add mingw CMake support with a toolchain file
+
+ There has been a number of mingw issues that has been linked under
+ HDFFV-10845. It has been decided to implement the CMake cross-compiling
+ technique of toolchain files. We will use a linux platform with the mingw
+ compiler stack for testing. Only the C language is fully supported, and
+ the error tests are skipped. The C++ language works for static but shared
+ builds has a shared library issue with the mingw Standard Exception Handling
+ library, which is not available on Windows. Fortran has a common cross-compile
+ problem with the fortran configure tests.

For static builds, the PDB files for windows should be installed next
