FINALLY! Got it working. I took another mingw distribution from http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/ (installer version tdm-gcc-4.7.1-2.exe) With mingwsys from my previos mingw installation. The gcc version this distribution uses: Using built-in specs.

Or what is the output of depends libfreetype-6.dll

No SDL2?
This is want depends shows for me. (but it is the same output as for the vm from the build server - and that one works). There is a dependency on libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll, only for some modules that are loaded at runtime. Can you rename your mingw installation directory and start pharo (and look that freetype/cairo/SDL are loadable?
thank you for your help :)

Did you tried this ?
https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm/blob/master/README-Win32.md
(I wrote that thing a while ago).
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Automated%20MinGW%20Installer/mi... was where I got the env from.
I've got a PharoVM built with gcc 4.8.1
Can you check that this vm does not depend on the mingw runtime. (I managed to create a vm that opens, but if I start this without the mingw installation directory in my path, I get the following error: libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing )
The vm from the build server works even without a local mingw installation.
Uploading the thing in dropbox.
Will send a link when done.

arenât you able to install an older version of gcc in your newer version of mingw?
hm, downgrading the compiler was suprisingly easy. But I have still the same error. This is the gcc version information:

Anyone knows what could be the problem ? Stacktrace from the crash, this happens directly after the start:

I do not have time right now to update the build into a new compiler, sorry (also, that is not always trivial/desired, he)

I managed to trash my mingw build environment -> uninstalled /removed mingw/mingsys -> reinstall from current mingw-installer -> bad idea
I can build a pharo windows vm but it immediately crashes on startup. I suspect some changes between gcc 4.6 (old environment) gcc 4.8 (new environment). (I think there are some changes related to file globbing (I managed to get the vm somehow working to not crash on startup but on shutdown instead - with _CRT_glob = 0. And gcc-4.8 uses dfferent (dwarf vs. sjlj ) exception handling, don't know if this is related).
I tried to find a ming-installer for the old version but could not find anything and I tried to manually setup a ming installation from the old packages (dozen of packages for mingw / core-utils / bintutils /msys from different places (no fun)).
1) did anyone get a windows vm from mingws current version (with gcc 4.8) working?
2) can someone package/zip and upload an old mingw installation (maybe that one that is used on the build server?
