By default subprocess.h will not work on MinGW because of _MSC_VER.

I managed to get it to compile (and at least work (create, read stderr and join)) by:

removing line 353 (definition for _alloca) and instead #include <malloc.h>
-D_MSC_VER=1920 (this should be replaced by #ifdef _WIN32 and similiar
-D_DLL as gcc doesn't like it when it tries to compare to something undefined.

I don't support MinGW - if there was a way to test support for it in GitHub Actions I could consider it though.

I can help with that, but I'm busy at the moment. Anyone interested can just take up the job in the meantime.

Given I'm not intending on fixing this myself, and you don't have the time, I'm closing the issue.

Feel free to re-open if you get the chance to look at this (but I've personally no intention of ever working on MinGW support on Windows!)
