assimp historically had problems building for the Windows platform with a GNU toolchain, but those problems have been fixed upstream some time ago. These bindings use the latest assimp release, so they contain those fixes already, and thus there is no point in artificially restricting support for a target that assimp can now deal with.
I've tested that indeed this target is supported by assimp by cross-compiling the Windows tools binary with the mingw-w64 toolchain from a Linux host, and then running it under Wine with no problems.
