Hi Alex
I went to this
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Base/gettext/gettext-0.18.1.1-2/

and got
mingw-get-inst-20120426.exe

This downloads and installs a number of files from 0.18.1 and mingw into 
c:\mingw

Then along with the normal procedure this is used to compile stellarium. 
However the compile 
fails immediately because there is no libintl.h (normally provided from 
gettext.exe). After 
adding this from elsewhere it procedes a little further and needs zlib.h and 
zconf.h
(normally provided by zlib.exe). 
Next it stops when it can't find libiconv.dll (provided by libiconv.exe) and 
then libgettextlib.dll 
and libgettextsrc.dll (these were provided in gettext-0.14.4.exe) and finally 
msgfmt.exe which also 
came with the old extras

I can use old zlib-1.2.3.exe components and I think the libiconv-1.2.9.1.exe is 
still current but I haven't got 
a 0.18.1 version of libgettext.dll or libgettextsrc-0.18.1.dll. These would 
normally be 
available in a compiled version of gettext-0.18.1 source but I can't compile 
this at the moment 
and can't find them anywhere ready compiled.

Of the other three old dependencies are gettext-0.14.4.exe is nolonger current 
but I think the
others are.

Barry

PS I did manage to compile gettext-tools on XP and have libgettextsrc.dll there 
but I can't 
compile the rest.
