You need to install MinGW-w64. Hopefully your distro has
a recent version. If not, then you can go to Sourceforge to
get one.
http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/

Personally I use this un-official build under Linux since the official
automatic-build is usually not very good.

But the personal build from sezero is also said to be good.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/sezero_4.5_20111101/

Under Windows, I use TDM64.
