openSUSE maintains them in a separate devel project for now:

* Windows 32-bit x86:
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/windows:mingw:win32
* Windows 64-bit x86:
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/windows:mingw:win64

Once Wine needs them, they'll probably land in openSUSE:Factory and go
into Tumbleweed.
