Compiling Error on Windows using gcc

[helsharif]

Hello,
I am trying to compile exact extract in Windows using gcc.
I get the following error when trying to compile using mingw

Looks like this is an OSGeo4W distribution issue with that particular header. A lot of OSGeo4W suite has migrated to use the MSVC compiler which is pretty freely available. Perhaps that can address this issue.
