I think OP should have mentioned that the project is C-only, eg: $ cat CMakeLists.txt cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.8) project (test C) add_executable (test test.c)
In which case I also get: $ cmake -G 'Unix Makefiles' -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Windows -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -DCMAKE_RC_COMPILER=i686-w64-mingw32-windres .. -- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.6.3 -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -- broken CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:61 (message): The C compiler "/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc" is not able to compile a simple test program.
