Stefan,

I'm afraid there is a small misunderstanding here, I checked and even without 
upgrading the packages, the Debian 8 (Jessie) does not include the packages you 
are referring above, the actual versions I identified are:

# dpkg -l | grep mingw

the differences are major, mingw-w64 was upgraded from 2.0.3 to 3.2.0, the 
compiler from 4.6.3 to 4.9.1, and so on.

what are the recommended versions to correctly build qemu?

and the question from the previous message is still open, how did you install 
the following packages? the comment "Converted tgz package" is a good sign 
these are custom packages.

ii  gtk-mingw-w64-x86-64 3.6.4-20131201-2              all          Converted
