  Using a version of mingw-64 with winpthreads, packages that support posix
threads, such as Guile, can be (cross-)built for MinGW with thread support.

Also, since gcc-13, a MinGW (cross-)compiler provides g++ with std::mutex when
built with a version of mingw-w64 that has winpthreads enabled.

Now that we are using gcc-14 for cross-builds, switching to MingGW packages
and a MinGW cross-build toolchain that uses winpthreads is probably helpful.

Greetings,
Janneke
