Use the msysdvlpr command to enter the MSYS Build Environment. I updated 
the howto accordingly.

The former method didn't work for me as well, with the msys.bat file 
shipped in MSYS 1.0.10. It couldn't find rxvt.exe nor sh.exe. The CVS 
version has a fix for this. If you want, you can get it here:
