Only if someone who cares enough about this issue steps up and does the work.
That could be you: http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html
The patch attached here is not a proper fix, as stated by its author:
"Also as stated in an email reply sent to someone regarding gcc bug #52015,
this is not a proper MinGW patch. It can break existing programs using the
Windows versions of [v]swprintf (as it replaces them with the standard
signatures), might(?) cause problems if the functions aren't inlined, and it is
applied to post-build MinGW so it cannot be guaranteed that future libstdc++
changes won't make enabling this impossible. The patch is also missing a call
to __builtin_va_end." http://tehsausage.com/mingw-to-string
