Well at least now I know! I'll build with Visual Studio and reply to this
with the results.
Thank you!

Hi Mario,

I'm not aware of a successful BRL-CAD build with MinGW.  All attempts
I know about got stuck during the CMake configuration, as you did.
What you could do is
- Use MS Visual Studio
- Use Linux in a virtual machine (there is an image among the BRL-CAD
downloads)
- Fix BRL-CAD's CMake files (not recommended if you aren't fit in writing
them)

Therefore, I'm afraid the answer is negative.


Regards,
    Daniel
