2.8.7 build failure with Mingw 5.1.3 on Vista

[raananb]

Building wx2.8.7 using DialogBlocks (build for wxMSW) works fine out of the
box with Watcom C++ but fails with GCC (all configurations). Any specific
reason for failure with GCC (I am no expert in make) ?

Extract from config.log:

configure:12525: gcc -v </dev/null >&5
