Not sure about bundling since Geany tends to stay away from extra 
dependencies and complexity. One possibility would be either in the 
manual or more fittingly perhaps on the wiki to include instructions for 
downloading the Mingw binaries, adding them to PATH and compiling a 
"Hello world" program with them.
