It looks like the docs are indeed wrong.

According to http://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/wiki2/TypeTriplets/ it 
should be x86_64-w64-mingw32

So in summary, the docs at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/installation-platform-notes.html#INSTALLATION-NOTES-MINGW
should be updated from:

     --host=x86_64-w64-mingw

to:

     --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32

Not sure where to report that?
