Unless someone can give me a reasonable counter to Danny's reply below,
I'm not accepting this patch.

My reading of C99 standard (section 6.7.2.1) is that nameless
unions/structures
are now part of standard. The fix should go into GCC not the mingw
headers.
GCC -pedantic -std=iso9899:199x should not raise warnings about unnamed
structures; GCC -pedantic -std=iso9899:199409 should.
I think the warnings should stay for now, since they are extensions to
the
currently supported standard.
