Building windows executables

[Jack]

Chris,

Did this ever get answered?  If so, sorry for the noise.  If not, the  
problem is that qtwebengine will simply not compile with mingw, so  
craft treats it as a no-op.  I think the exact behavior by craft may  
have changed recently, but the bottom line is that it fails silently,  
and may or may not (recent change?) at least tell you about it.

And - in trying to find a link for you, I see it was you who filed the  
bug I was thinking about - so you already know this.  I'm responding  
here, just for another place someone hunting for this information might  
find it.  I think it might compile with msvc2019, but that likely leads  
to other issues, and I haven't actually tried it yet myself.
