Libc++ also supports being built with clang targeting MinGW environments.

Libc++ supports Windows 7 or newer. However, the minimum runtime version
of the build is determined by the ``_WIN32_WINNT`` define, which in many
SDKs defaults to the latest version. To build a version that runs on an
older version, define e.g. ``_WIN32_WINNT=0x601`` while building libc++,
to target Windows 7.
