I only changed the pango-basic-win32.dll (20 KB), nothing else.

Doing it with MSYS and ./configure.
So I could send you my makefile and config.h, but there are some pointers to
MSYS, and some to MinGW, and it is meant to be made automatically.
And there needs to be done some more work.

I think though is good idea to put makefile and config.h 'the old way' for
the branch (with GTK+2.2 GUI)
and MSYS / MinGW for the trunk.
MSYS/MinGW: big downloads, frequent updates (of components)... so even an
advanced user would still need a fast internet connection to keep up.

Oh... BTW: ./configure does not give a #define WIN32 1 and either
the -lwinmm lib.

If all this sounds foolish... please tell. I'm used to be called 'silly'.
