           Summary: __MSVCRT_VERSION__ is not defined

__MSVCRT_VERSION__ is a constant that tells mingw which version of MSVCR is
required by the application. When it is not defined, it is defaulted to 0x0600
in _mingw.h system header.
However, gstreamer uses a feature that, according to mingw headers, are only
available in MSVCR versions newer than 60 (the __stat64 structure).
This appeared at devel mailing list, but never made it to the bug tracker - 
http://www.nabble.com/gstreamer-mingw32-__stat64-td19835510.html

My opinion is that __MSVCRT_VERSION__ should be defined as 0x0601 in config.h
or in gst.h
