There are two cases that need to be accounted for when compiling QEMU
for MinGW32:
1) A standalone distribution, where QEMU is self contained and
extracted by the user, such as a user would download from the QEMU
website. In this case, all of the QEMU files should be rooted in
$prefix to ensure they can be easily packaged together for
distribution
2) QEMU integrated into a distribution image/sysroot/SDK and
distributed with other programs. In this case, the provided
arguments for bindir/datadir/etc. should be respected as they for a
Linux build.
Add a configure time flags --enable-standalone-mingw and
--disable-standalone-mingw that allows the user to control this
behavior. The flag defaults to "enabled" if unspecified to retain the
existing build behavior

I think this should maybe be done independently from MinGW, so that it could
be used on other systems, too. Thus maybe rather name the switch
"--enable-standalone-distribution" or "--enable-standalone-installation" or
something like this? On MinGW, the value of the switch could then default to
"yes" while on other systems it would be "no" by default.
