I was working yesterday on the same issue. After discovering that wine
make my environment not a cross-build I had many problems due to some
configure scripts. I check in some patch but it still do not compile...
src/replacements/readpassphrase.c need a replacement :) Also ODBC do not
compile at all (but you can use Makefile at win32/dev-cpp/Makefile.win).
I didn't understand why it do not generated dll files... but I think you
can use dllwrap...
