<p>Maybe it's possible to use WSL if you installed enough tools for cross-compiling a mingw target, but you'll be alone then, I think no one ever tried that.</p>

<p>installCygwin.bat requires parameters, at least x86_64, otherwise, it will install tools for 32bit (i686) VM.<br>

<p>Yes, I had specified these parameters (<code>i686</code>). I am trying to build the 32bit version.</p>
