This builds and runs on MinGW/MSYS except that it has the same problem as 
the 3.3git-594 tarball: The supplied version of ltmain.sh does not handle 
interlibrary dependencies on Windows. I have attached a diff file showing 
the slight differences between the ltmain.sh in the tarball (2.2.6b 
Debian-2.2.6b-2ubuntu1, which fails) and the ltmain.sh downloaded from 
packages.debian.org (plain 2.26b).  It looks like it was broken in Ubuntu 
2.2.6a-3 (change log says "Don't pull in depedency libs when linking a 
binary"). GNU Radio builds ok if I run ./bootstrap locally.

It would be nice if we could ship a tarball with a ltmain.sh that works on 
Windows.

P.S.:  I have brought the MinGW install page on the wiki up to date (I hope 
to add instructions for git soon).
