I'm not sure how to check that they're using the same CRT. And mingw32
seemed like the path of least resistance, until now, so - I was using
the version of the mingw32 tools that was installed by the Qt
installer. So when I use make/gcc from that, can I safely assume it's
the same CRT that Qt was built with? If not, do I need to build Qt
from source? Or would MSVC make it all easier?
