Sorry these things are over my head, but hopefully someone else can help

Several of us are right now trying to port Gnomesword onto Windows. The
libtrary compiles cleanly on mingw, while Gnomesword compiles too, but
has a number of issues left. Look into the gnomesword development list
for more info. I am sure, if you have development experience on Windows,
the guys will be delighted to get you involved.
