It is not feasible to include different compilers into same package for
Windows. When MinGW comes, it will be its own package.

We have been working to improve MinGW support and it should be feasible to
build Qt 5.0 with it. Binary installer will most likely be done after the
holidays, unless someone wants to do it earlier.
