I know this has something to do with mingw side, any help will be appreciated.

cc is probably not defined. Set the environment variable for CC to gcc or whatever compiler you are using. Either in the Makefile, cmd or permanently in the environment variables.

Thanks. Also why mingw-w64-i686-gcc instead of x86_64 ?

Laziness. A 32bit executable works on both 32bit and 64bit machines.
