Hi.

rustc 1.14.0-nightly (3210fd5c2 2016-10-05)
binary: rustc

host: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
release: 1.14.0-nightly

$ i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -v

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.8.2 (GCC) 

I install rustup target add i686-pc-windows-gnu toolchain and edit cargo config

$ cat ~/.cargo/config
[target.x86_64-pc-windows-gnu]
linker = "/usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc"

[target.i686-pc-windows-gnu]
linker = "/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc"

Then build for x86_64

$ cargo build --release --target "x86_64-pc-windows-gnu"
   Compiling foo v0.1.0 (file:///home/user/Projects/rust/foo)
    Finished release [optimized] target(s) in 0.62 secs

That's ok, no questions.

But if I compile to i686

$ LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 cargo build --release --target "i686-pc-windows-gnu"
   Compiling foo v0.1.0 (file:///home/user/Projects/rust/foo)

error: aborting due to previous error

error: Could not compile `foo`.

To learn more, run the command again with --verbose.

[retep998]

The actual error is this: undefined reference to _Unwind_RaiseException'`.

Furthermore I believe this is a dupe of #32859

[c0ldhell]

Thanks, this #32859 (comment) solution work for me. Now I download and install rust-nightly-i686-pc-windows-gnu.msi on wine and copied ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Rust\ nightly\ GNU\ 1.14/lib/rustlib/i686-pc-windows-gnu/lib to ~/.multirust/toolchains/nightly-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/rustlib/i686-pc-windows-gnu/lib.
