mingwm10.dll must be updated in the FBIde download file #1

Execution attempt of FBIde can abort (rarely) due to an old mingwm10.dll file included in the FBIde download file. It is confirmed that updating mingwm10.dll with a more recent file version fixes the problem.

This update should be applied at least to the official link to FBIde : https://fbide.freebasic.net/ pointing to: http://sourceforge.net/projects/fbide/files/fbide%200.4/fbide%200.4.6%20r4/FBIde0.4.6r4.zip/download

Hi. For some reason I wasn't notified about your Issue. If this is in the fbc read me, the best thing to do would be to Fork the fbc project on your GitHub account, edit the readme file, and then make a Pull Request back to the main project.

My request is that in the file http://sourceforge.net/projects/fbide/files/fbide%200.4/fbide%200.4.6%20r4/FBIde0.4.6r4.zip at least (and maybe in other locations), we replace the mingwm10.dll file by a newer version, and not a comment in the fbc readme.txt file..

It would be good to have a PR for the readme file.

EDIT: sorry, I see you've changed your request, we leave the readme as is, and update the files on the site.

EDIT: I don't think we have any control over fbide on SourceForge. That would be something vongodric would have to do.
