Mine too. MinGW + MSYS is great, just what I have been looking for,
and it seems much faster than Cygwin.

Sorry to pollute this thread but may I ask which MinGW/MSYS you use?
The download page is massive and the "current" and "candidate"
sections don't even have a windows installer. I finally used
MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe and MSYS-1.0.9.exe from "previous". I now see
there's "proposed" right at the bottom with MinGW-5.0.2.exe but no
MSYS. What is best for building Ruby?
