Dear Peter Tyser,

Add support for compiling the host tools in the tools directory using the MinGW toolchain. This produces executables which can be used on standard Windows computers without requiring cygwin.
One must specify the MinGW compiler and strip utilities as if they were the host toolchain in order to build win32 executables, eg:
make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools

I'm not happy about this os_support thingy, especially since it will always be compiled, even if not needed in 99.99% of the cases. Maybe you have a better idea and can send a cleanup-patch?
Added, thanks.
Best regards,
