To bootstrap we have have two packages whose source is just the pre-built mingw related APIs/runtime mingw32-runtime-bootstrap (closet equiv to libc for mingw) mingw32-w32apis-bootstrap (extra windows APIs) Then we can build mingw32-binutils & mingw32-gcc, and with those then build the real mingw32-runtime and mingw32-w32apis RPMs, which obsolete the 2 -bootstrap RPMs of same name. The two bootstrap RPMs only ever need to be installed in the mock chroot once, for the initial build cycle & can then be disposed of.
