Hi Marc

On my part, feel free to give it a shot. To be honest personally I don't really know enough about UCRT to judge the consequences.

Regarding mingw32, I think the discussion came up some time ago when I proposed changing the mingw32 exception model to be able to build rust. If memory serves me right, there were still some use-cases for mingw32, perhaps mingw-gecko/wine? Michael can you add more maybe?

Thanks
Sandro

Hi Sandro & list,

UCRT seems to be the recommended C runtime for a bit more than 2 years
now. It solves issues with utf8, C standard, interop with MSVC etc.

Do we have plans to start adding that target? Apparently we would need
a new target prefix ucrt64-, and compile crt/headers
--with-default-msvcrt=ucrt64 etc. I could eventually give it a shot.

Regarding long-term plans, should we plan to drop 32 bit targets? it's
a niche nowadays.

thanks
