Parallel install of different versions of mingw has never been something we needed to consider. We only need parallel install the different ABIs, which is handled by the higher level dir in the path. So from that POV, I don't think mingw particularly cares what semantics are attached to the 4th path component 'mingw'. As long as we don't have to change our paths currently used in Fedora, I think it'd be OK for you to define the 4th component as the OS version indicator.
