I wes trying to build the Windows Bacula binaries myself with Fedora's mingw but I dropped the task due to lack of time. In Fedora there are some Windows binaries built inside rpms with mingw (like the Windows Spice Agent) and is very handy [1]. All the macros and SPEC file skeletons are in the Packaging Guidelines as well as static libraries to be used as dependencies already compiled for Windows [2] [3]. Would you like to share your changes to the code so maybe we can contribute to those?
