Autoconf is needed. So if you don't have autoconf on the windows box,
what you'd need to do is check it out to a unix/gnu/linux-system, run
the .bootstrap scripts (as per the instructions), and do a ./configure
&& make && make dist in the nettle directory. And then copy the
resulting .tar.gz to the windows machine. So it's not very convenient.

When the lsh xenofarm is up and running, you can also cheat and get a
recent lsh snapshot from
http://www.lysator.liu.se/xenofarm/lsh/builds/latest. At the moment, the
most recent snapshot there is from October, but if things goes well a
current one should be prepared within an hour or so.

I'm not sure when I'll get around to making a new release.

Noted. I'll see what I can do.
