I would suggest not using Ubuntu for cross compiling. Mainly due to
the fact that there aren't any readily compiled libraries available
that are needed to build Subsurface with mingw32. Fedora's repos have
a bunch of already cross compiled libraries where you just download
those packages. AFAIK these aren't available on Ubuntu.
