MinGW cross compilation failure on Debian trixie - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

Hi,

I am working on upgrading Debian bookworm CI images to Debian trixie.
CompilerWarnings CI task's mingw_cross_warning_script failed with [1]:

```
make -s -j${BUILD_JOBS} clean
time make -s -j${BUILD_JOBS} world-bin

```

I am not sure if this problem is about Postgres or Debian yet; but I
wanted to share it.

I can reproduce this problem on my Debian sid machine on upstream,
REL_18_STABLE and REL_17_STABLE branches. REL_16_STABLE compiles
successfully. My specs are:
- Linux nbyavuz 6.16.7+deb14-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian
6.16.7-1 (2025-09-11) x86_64 GNU/Linux
- gcc version 15.2.0 (Debian 15.2.0-4)
- mingw-w64-tools 12.0.0-5
- gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64-win32 14.2.0-19+27+b1
- g++-mingw-w64-x86-64-win32 14.2.0-19+27+b1
