Since you the prefix in the config is now canged to
/c/gstreamer-sdk/0.10/$ARCH, you will find everything on this path
now.

The default configuration file is ~/.cerbero/cerbero.cbc, but this
config can be extended with ./cerbero-uninstalled -c
some_config_file.cbc
The config files on the ./config folder are used as examples to
compile for different platforms and architectures.
For instance to cross-compile to android on a linux machine you will
typically use ./cerbero-uninstalled -c config/cross-android.cbc.
In you case you could have created config files for w32 and w64
instead of adding it to ~/.cerbero/cerbero.cbc and use them with
./cerbero-uninstalled -c w32.cbc.

At which point are you? What's failing now after setting proprely the
host and target architectures?
