See http://download.cegit.de/kde-windows/repository/win32libs/single/ - all files without 'msvc' and 'mingw' are combined ones (mostly) compiled by our own. > ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/lyx-windows-deps-msvc2008.zip > > Maybe you could pick up some packages in this?

Currently only the precompiled version from gnuwin32 (0.50.3) because I had no time and will to test 0.60.5. But at least it compiles. :) Aspell is one of our 'combined' packages which is useable for mingw and msvc builds. It gets compiled with msys. Christian -- Psst!
