Correct, it is still disabled.

These issues still persist.

In a nutshell: The sis/erc32 simulators don't compile on MinGW, because 
MinGW doesn't provide the necessary syscalls these simulators are based on.

Somewhat longer version:
  These simulators apply fcntl but MinGW doesn't have this function.

=> What would be required to be done in an initial step would be to 
either implement fcntl into MinGW or to rewrite gdb's erc32/sis 
simulators in such a way they don't requires fcntl.
