I just tested building it on a "virgin" xp system

download the mingw installer from mingw.org and execute.
downlaod msys installer from mingw and execute.
download and unzip libz binaries and development packages from
gnuwin32.sf.net.
I copied them in c:\MinGW
download fossil binary. i copied fossil.exe to c:\MinGW\bin

open msys and type
   fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org/ myclone.fossil
   mkdir fossil
   cd fossil
   fossil open ../myclone.fossil
   make -f Makefile.win32
   ./fossil rebuild
   cp fossil.exe /c/MinGW/bin

Upgrading to the latest
   open msys
   cd fossil
   fossil update
   make -f Makefile.win32
   ./fossil rebuild
   cp fossil.exe /c/MinGW/bin
