Sure it does. It is just unsupported :) I cross compiled 2.0 without much fuzz at all many moons ago without other changes than a small work-around for a bug in mingw. 2.2 should be about the same. 3.0 (or rather, the 2.9 beta) could possibly be quite a lot harder

Ahh, TIL. Last I looked into it, it seemed technically possible but very impractical.
