Explicitly call out MinGW as needing --query-driver #95

Closed HighCommander4 closed 9 months ago

HighCommander4 commented 9 months ago

Based on experience answering hundreds of users questions, users don't tend to think of MinGW as "unusual" or a "cross-compiler", but it does seem to require use of --query-driver to work well.

I'd also be happy to replace the term "unusual compiler" in this answer with a different umbrella term, but I don't have a suggestion for what. In my experience, a large variety of users benefit from --query-driver.

i think if you feel like changing it we can stick to that principle (and also enforce it going forward when faced with user requests that fall outside of that purpose).

Could you elaborate on this? I'm not sure I follow what you're saying.
