Now run configure. There are two ways to do this
-> ../configure --host=i586-mingw32 --build=i586-linux --with-mingw \
- --enable-dnd=no
+ --enable-dnd=no --without-odbc
where --build= should read whatever platform you're building on. Configure
will notice that build and host platforms differ, and automatically prepend
i586-mingw32- to gcc, ar, ld, etc (make sure they're in the PATH!).
[ Update: some new mingw32 versions now have a new set of windows header
files, which apparently can handle ole. Untested at the moment ]
+ODBC files don't compile as of 13.10.99 - may be this will be fixed by the
+moment you're reading these lines.

Configure will conclude that shared libraries are out of the question and
opt for a static one. I haven't looked into DLL creation yet.
and wait, wait, wait. Don't leave the room, because the minute you do there
will be a compile error :-)
+NB: you risk to get quite a few warnings about "ANSI C++ forbids implicit
+ conversion from 'void *'" in all places where va_arg macro is used. This
+ is due to a bug in (some versions of) mingw32 headers which may be
+ corrected by editing the file
+
+ ${install_prefix}/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mingw32/egcs-2.91.57/include/stdarg.h
+
+ (instead of egcs-2.91.57 you may have something different), searching for
+ the lines
+
+/* Define __gnuc_va_list. */
+
+#ifndef __GNUC_VA_LIST
+#define __GNUC_VA_LIST
+#if defined(__svr4__) || defined(_AIX) || defined(_M_UNIX) || defined(__NetBSD__)
+typedef char *__gnuc_va_list;
+#else

+ __gnuc_va_list is char *.

If this is successful, you end up with a libwx_msw.a in win32/lib. Now try
building the minimal sample:
