Avoid compile errors.  The original statement is

    int main( ...

But we want

    static int mingw_main( ...

So we need to first get rid of the original int, before
we can start the static decl.  We get rid by completing
the original int with the dummy_decl_mingw_main(); to a
full function decl.
