That guide really only works well on Unix systems. I'd read the 
README.MinGW in the gnustep-make/Documentation directory for 
instructions. Alternately, you can download and install the windows 
installation program:

http://www.gnustep.org/resources/sources.html#windows

Which gets the basic stuff installed up to gnustep-base. Then checkout 
the 'core' software from CVS and recompile everything again to get the 
latest stuff*.

NOTE that savannah.gnu.org and subverions.gnu.org are down for a few 
days, so you won't be able to do that :-(


I don't really understand the errors you got. Hopefully doing it this 
way will fix that.
