+Feature: Cross-compile C extensions
+
+  In order to avoid bitching from Windows users
+  As a Ruby developer on Linux
+  I want some rake tasks that take away the pain of compilation
+
+  Scenario: compile single extension
+    Given that all my source files are in place
+    And I'm running a POSIX operating system
+    And I've installed cross compile toolchain
+    When rake task 'cross compile' is invoked
+    Then rake task 'cross compile' succeeded
+    And binaries for platform 'i386-mingw32' get generated
