I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with it. More likely you are encountering the fact that a) apparently few, if any, people use mingw with Python, b) few, if any, people have every needed to cross-compile Python. I'm not sure what mingw and cross-compilation have in common. Does using mingw require cross-compilation?
Finally, taking a look at your patch, it seems pretty big. If mingw doesn't necessarily imply cross-compilation, could your patch be split into two separate patches, one for each task?
