2016 notes on trying to build on minwin. See older notes from Thomas Chust below.

  #  Build must be done from cmd.exe. It doesn't work from mingw shell
  #  Add to PATH:<verbatim>set PATH=%PATH%;c:\MinGW\bin;c:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin</verbatim>
   

With thanks to Thomas Chust, here is the build overview.

 * Install a fresh Windows XP and all available system updates in a
  virtual machine

 * Add C:/Programme/MinGW/bin, C:/Programme/CHICKEN/bin and
  C:/Programme/IUP to the system path

 * Download and unzip mingw-get 0.1 alpha 5 into C:/Programme/MinGW

 * Run `mingw-get install mingw-developer-toolkit mingw32-gcc
  msys-bash` in a Windows shell

 * Download and unzip CHICKEN 4.6.3

 * Run `make PLATFORM=mingw-msys PREFIX=C:/Programme/CHICKEN` and
  `make PLATFORM=mingw-msys PREFIX=C:/Programme/CHICKEN install` in
  an MSYS shell inside the CHICKEN source directory.

 * Download and unzip ffcall 1.10

 * Run `./configure --prefix=C:/Programme/CHICKEN`, `make` and `make
  install` in an MSYS shell in the ffcall source directory

 * Download and unzip IM 3.6.3, CD 5.4.1 and IUP 3.3 into
  C:/Programme/IUP

 * Delete all Lua related files from C:/Programme/IUP and
  C:/Programme/IUP/include — who needs lua if you can have CHICKEN?
  ;-)

 * Checkout the trunk version of the IUP egg from
  https://code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/4/iup/trunk

 * Run `CSC_OPTIONS='-IC:/Programme/IUP/include -LC:/Programme/IUP'
  chicken-install -D no-library-checks` in an MSYS shell in the IUP
  egg source directory

 * Run `csi -R iup -e '(let ([dlg (dialog #:title "Test" (button "Push
  me!" #:action print))]) (show dlg #:modal? #t))'` to verify the
  installation works
