Yes, there is about half page on page 21. Yust a few hints from my 
experience with mingw and building simulavr. But it's a lot of work to 
get environment with all needed tools complete for it!

Just a list of packages from msys, which I use: bash, bzip2, coreutils, 
gawk, gzip, libiconv, libintl, liblzma, libregex, libtermcap, msysCORE, 
tar, xz, bison, crypt, diffutils, file, findutils, flex, gettext, grep, 
inetutils, less, libasprintf, libbz2, libcharset, libcrypt, 
libgettextpo, libiconv, libmagic, libminres, libopenssl, locate, make, 
minres, openssh, openssl, patch, perl, sed, termcap, texinfo, unzip, 
zip, zlib (+dev).

And from mingw32: autoconf2.5, automake1.11, binutils, gcc, gcc-c++, 
gcc-core, gettext, gmp, libasprintf, libgcc, libgettextpo, libgmp, 
libgmpxx, libgomp, libiconv, libintl, libtdl (+dev), libmpc, libmpfr, 
libpthread, libssp, libstdc++, libtool, make, mingwrt, pthreads (+dev), 
w32api.

Then also winavr, swigwin, python. Tcl and wish is included in gitwin, 
(as I remember) but normally I don't build tcl interface.

The packages before are this, what's in MY environment! It dosn't mean, 
that ALL is needed, but if something dosn't work with build, then it's 
maybe a hint, what's missed!

Feel free to ask, if something isn't clear or if you have some 
suggestions to extend documentation.

cu, Thomas
