[CMake] What generator(s) should be used for MinGW-w64?

[Mueller-Roemer, Johannes Sebastian]

mingw32-make, and yes it's included (I recently started using ninja as well, but that isn't included, and has some limitations with cmake)

Hi Johannes:

Thanks for that useful information.
What is the name of the make command you use, and is it part of the mingw-builds binary packages that you recommend?
