[Gmsh] Addendum: Possible bug in CMakeLists.txt script?: Stack size not set to 16 MB and Win32icon.res not linked for MinGW builds

[Trevor Strickler]

Well I accidentally sent the previous message before I was completely
finished editing it:  Here it is with minor modifications and polite
closing:

             CMAKE_GENERATOR  STREQUAL "Eclipse CDT4 - MinGW Makefiles" )
