   MinGW provides headers and libraries so that GCC (a compiler suite, not just a "unix/linux compiler") can be built and used against the Windows C runtime. It provides sporadic extensions, mostly where the C and/or C++ standards require additional functionality that hasn't been implemented in Windows' versions of the C library (think C11 currently).
