But when I try to run: $ ~/sources/postgresql-9.5.0/configure
--host=x86_64-w64-mingw

I get an error system mingw not recognized:

The sources were downloaded from
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/v9.5.0/

Are the docs up to date?

Thanks

It looks like the docs are indeed wrong.

According to http://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/wiki2/TypeTriplets/ it
should be x86_64-w64-mingw32

So in summary, the docs at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/installation-platform-notes.html#INSTALLATION-NOTES-MINGW
should be updated from:

--host=x86_64-w64-mingw

to:

--host=x86_64-w64-mingw32

Not sure where to report that?
