+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:

+We now have a system that supports C++11 std::thread. Now build the rest:

 This will take a while.
