+First, get the MXE cross-compile environment for MinGW-w64/Windows:
 
  $ cd $HOME
  $ git clone https://github.com/mxe/mxe.git mxe-git
  $ cd mxe-git
- $ make gcc glib libzip libftdi gtk2 qt boost nsis

+For now we need to build gcc and winpthreads in two steps. First:
+
+ $ make MXE_TARGETS=i686-w64-mingw32.static gcc winpthreads
+
+In src/gcc.mk change "--enable-threads=win32" to "--enable-threads=posix".
+
+Then build gcc again:
+
+ $ make MXE_TARGETS=i686-w64-mingw32.static gcc
+
+We now have a system that supports C++11 std::thread. Now build the rest:
+
+ $ make MXE_TARGETS=i686-w64-mingw32.static glib libzip libusb1 libftdi1 \
+   glibmm qtbase qtsvg boost check
 
 This will take a while.
