Well, bad news and good news. The bad: We get the wrong results when just removing HAVE_BUGGY_STRTOF. The good: That is just because we haven't applied enough, or the right, magic. To have mingw to not interfere with things one also has to pass -D_UCRT and -lucrt - then the tests pass, even without HAVE_BUGGY_STRTOF. I think this might also explain (and fix) some other oddity we had with mingw that I was getting confused about a while back, but I forgot too much of the details... Greetings, Andres Freund
