[cairo] building cairo with mingw

[Cosmin Apreutesei]

Hi,
Anyone has a howto on building cairo with mingw32 ?

Here's where I'm at:

1. installed mingw and msys (on winxp32)
2. opened up a msys console
3. basic setup:

export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig
export CFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -I/usr/local/lib"

4. downloaded latest zlib, pixman and cairo sources

5. built zlib (the ./configure script doesn't work anymore tells me to
run the makefile directly):

        cd zlib
        make -f win32/Makefile.gcc
        INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/local/include LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
BINARY_PATH=/usr/local/bin make -f win32/Makefile.gcc install

6. built pixman:

        set -e
	cd pixman/pixman
	./configure
	make
	make install

Now pkg-config --list-all sees zlib and pixman.

6. tried to build cairo (minimalistic since I can't make it see zlib**):
         ** although I can see in /usr/local the files lib/libz.a,
include/{zlib,zconf}.h and bin/zlib1.dll, configure says there's no
zlib.h

	./configure --disable-svg --disable-png --disable-ps --disable-pdf
--disable-fc --disable-ft --disable-script --disable-interpreter

Here's where I'm stuck:

Any ideas?
