Subject: wrong sitearch definition for MinGW builds

Hello List,

I've checked that the config.h generated by configure scripts list
RUBY_SITE_ARCHLIB as 'i386-msvcrt' instead of 'i386-mingw32' as
RUBY_ARCHLIB.

That could present some issues if new builds of MinGW that allow
target different MSVCRT version are used.

Shouldn't be RUBY_SITE_ARCHLIB the same as RUBY_ARCHLIB platform?

Also, in configure.in, if mingw is used as platform, the i386 is
automatically added, which is also wrong if you try to use mingw64 to
build x64 version of Ruby.

Should I submit this as patch to tracker? (before 1.8.7 get released).

Thanks in advance for your time.
