I don't mind using the "normal" Windows Installer .exe file and try to compile from that. I hope it works. I will try it tomorrow, to give you people a chance to stop me if it won't work.
I haven't tried it, though it should work (famous last words). For best results, you should clone the mercurial repository. If you'd rather not have that installed, you can download updated source code from our online repository browser.

Thanks for your suggestions. I am a persistent bee, and will try and get going based on the Makefile.wat in the "normal" exe distribution, in the repository, in the 4.0.4 final distribution, in the repository, etc, and make changes in the the .wat file as appropriate.
Earlier in this thread I read your caution about altering the Makefile. Usually I am not deterred by having to manipulate different "batch file" type of scripts. So, if I have to, I will alter the script to get the desired results.
I will remain alert to any other advice here, but otherwise, I will post my result (success or failure). In any case, I will go ahead with the MinGW compilation. I should be done in the next 36 hours (software writer's time scale!)
