For MinGW, I think that you need to have a shell were g++ and gcc in the PATH 
are mingw compilers. Then, in that shell, choose 'Unix Makefiles' as CMake 
generator. And use 'gmake' as build tool.

You will have to recompile Boost libraries yourself, unless you can find 
precompiled version for mingw.
