mingw build has no windows.ui.notifications.h header, so mingw32 build cannot implement toast notification backend.  I think that mingw32 doesn't support UWP well, so this header is missing.

So even if landed bug 1155505 (I will land it without mingw support), toast notification isn't implemented on mingw.

Jacek, this seems like a header issue

Yeah, it won't be quick to fix, I'm afraid. winrt mode extends .idl syntax quite a lot. I implemented some of those features in widl, but it's still not up to the task to generate windows.ui.notifications.h. It will be quite a bit of work.

No worries, this feature isn't urgent by any means.
