I suspect that you're heading for a hiding to nothing with this one; if 
the package can't be built --without-x, then it is going to have a very 
torrid time in a native Win32 environment.

It isn't in MinGW's remit to provide services for POSIX or X-Window, so 
you either have a major porting exercise ahead, to replace all the 
X-Window API references with native MS-Windows API alternatives, or you 
need an emulation framework.  For your needs, you may do better looking 
at Cygwin.

Regards,
Keith.
