I'm going to send few more patches for mingw in the future (e.g. for 
fsusage.c).

Is there an agreed-upon #define for mingw/windows which is not cygwin?

I've seen
  #ifdef _WIN32 && ! defined CYGWIN
But it seems clumsy and error-prone.

Basically, I'm looking for a way to know that one should '#include 
<windows.h>' and use windows api functions.

Thanks!

PS.
Thanks for the careful review of mountlist.c, I'll send updates soon.
