Thus, my proposal is to use MXE for building a new 14.4.1 (or
14.4.1.1, or 14.4.1a) Windows binary that includes flac and sndfile
support; and probably for later releases as well. I could turn
mingwbuild into an mxebuild that automates the build process (for MXE,
then for SoX using MXE). I guess I could also build the whole Windows
package myself, if necessary/preferred by Chris.

I guess the person submitting the most patches should also be calling the shots. :-)

Sounds promising solution. I especially like how it downloads everything so we can move between build computers much faster.

Can you tell MXE to build and prefer static libraries so that we can ship a minimal of DLL's? Its not a show stopper if we don't but it does reduce some run-time issues.

How about do as you suggest and create a mxebuild and we can support them in parallel for at least a release and if its successful then we can switch to only way.
