Thanks Martin, I shall take a look and see
if I can learn anything from their Makefiles.
However, I fear that they used VC:
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/pkg-geos
so there might be some problems replicating this
with MinGW.
This might be a but "puritanical" of me, but
I really think that all of GRASS' mandatory
dependencies on Windows should compile easily
using MinGW, and not require proprietary
tools.
Cheers,
Ben

Hi,

GEOS is a beast to compile on MinGW though, so creating
Windows binaries using open source tools might get
considerably harder with this added dependency.
This issue might resolve itself in the future, provided
that MinGW support improves.
note that GEOS is provided through OSGeo4W framework [1] and winGRASS
is compiled against GEOS [2].
