they don't have to go through that.  This MinGW environment is much more
limited than a Unix environment --- no bison, flex, cvs, or perl.

You should really consider using MSys (the development environment by one of the MinGW developers). It offers bash,perl,cvs,ssh,libtool,auto* and more in 3+9MB. I can't imagine porting anything from unix to Windows without that environment. It should even offer bison+flex.

there is an extra package called msysDTK (developer toolkit) http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=158856

and msysDTK-1.0.0-alpha-1.tar.gz includes perl (since actual msysDTK is an opaque .exe it's difficult for me to tell whether perl is in it, I clearly have perl.exe in my msys/bin).

bison and flex are available from the gnuwin32 effort:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages.html

PS: Never install normal windows binaries in msys/bin. There are special command line properties (directory structure compatibility) associated with msys/bin.
