Interesting that it's not a problem with the mingw changes but that it shows
a problem with "set-as-singleton". I "fixed" the problem with it, by
commenting out the offending code. But we'll have to wait and see if it
causes other problems, 'cause I don't remember why I did, what I did :-)

Cleaned that up also ;-)
