    Description

      See attached picture. The check is incorrect - In the mingw-builds package win32api.h is under i686-w64-mingw32\include .

      Anyhow, I suggest to remove the check altogether (which doesn't make any sense).

      To validate the installation, one could instead check for a i686-w64-mingw32 subfolder. Even better would be if it would actually run $INSTALLDIR\bin\g++.exe --version:

      g++ (i686-posix-dwarf, Built by MinGW-W64 project) 4.8.2
