Assuming you have installed the gcc package, what is the compiler called?

I don't think any of the core developers have seen Windows 7 especially
32-bit in a while.

The file that sets the expectations based on host is
source-builder/sb/windows.py. It may require some tinkering to match a
32-bit environment.

We'd love to have a patch to that file (don't break 64-bit) and, if needed,
documentation.
