I'm trying. Haven't got there yet, though. The first thing to note is
that you want to tell it you're on a mingw32 system.Secondly, config.links
gets the calling conventions from assembler wrong.
You should change sysdeps.h to say

#define CSYMBOL(name) _##name

(Actually, that's a hack, there's probably a better way to make it work.)
The next remaining issues I have are:
     undefined reference to `_ctype_'

ctype.h is included, but where should it get _ctype_ from?

     undefined reference to `read_w32_registry_string'

You can get around that by turning off __MINGW32__ for that period, and
it'll do the getenv() thing.

Let me know how it goes. If you can't even get that far, I'm happy to
send you a tarball of what I've done so far.
