Good to know mingw-w64 from xenial is used in the travis-ci script.
I did a quick test on ubuntu trusty (14.04.05 LTS), and as you pointed
out, it fails while
compiling block_dns.c because of some errors in the headers for the
windows filtering platform API. All the bits are there so its possible to
build
after tweaking the installed headers (only a couple of lines) but not
something
one would normally want to do.
It does look like targeting 14.04 is no more relevant.
