What's so interesting about this?  Until very recently, Emacs insisted
on printing "X server distributor" as the header of this field in the
bug report.  (It now says "Windowing system distributor" instead.)

There's no newer GCC for MinGW.  GCC 4.x has grave problems on Windows
(both in Cygwin and in MinGW) that will take time to resolve.  In the
meantime, I'm happily using 3.4.2 without any problems.  So I don't
see why we need to ask people to run for their lives to upgrade to the
latest and greatest.
