I don't know about Win-64, but on Win32, here's how I did it.

I first installed MinGW as per this:

   First, download and install, from ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/mingw/,
   the three installers:  MinGW-5.1.3.exe, MSYS-1.0.10.exe, and
   msysDTK-1.0.1.exe (you'll have to look for it in the list of
   downloads).  Run them in that order.  When the MinGW installer
   asks, go for a FULL install, not the default MINIMAL one.  The MSYS
   installer will pop up a CMD.EXE window that will ask you if you
   want to "normalize" the install.  Say "yes", and when it asks where
   the MinGW install is, say "c:/MinGW".  After it finishes with the
   CMD.EXE window, it will open some RTF documents; just close them
   and continue on to install msysDTK-1.0.1.exe.

   Once you have installed all three, you will have a Start folder
   called MinGW, and in it another folder called "MSYS", and in it a
   program called "msys".  Select that program and run it; it will start
   up an rxvt window running a Bourne shell.

This gives you a shell, make, and compilers that are compatible with
the Visual C++ compilers.  You can then build JCC and PyLucene.  The
only trick is building JCC -- you have to do it in two steps:

  python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32
  python setup.py install --skip-build

Then build and install PyLucene using its Makefile (you'll have to
edit the Makefile to have the right values for the libraries and
compiler settings).
