Comment (by tuffnatty):

 1) This port did always build fine. The bug reported reveals itself on
 runtime of a program built using this binutils/windres version.
 2) If mingw-w64-* work well finally, there is probably no need for
 mingw32. I am using a self-built port of mingw-w64 recently.
 3) On the other hand, I see no reason to not accept the patch until all
 mingw32 users switch to mingw-w64, because it is in upstream, tested for
 ages already, and adding the patch to macports does not seem difficult.
