The file README.W32 says at its beginning:

  Do this first, regardless of the build method you choose:
  ---------------------------------------------------------

   1. At the Windows command prompt run:

        if not exist NMakefile copy NMakefile.template NMakefile
        if not exist config.h copy config.h.W32 config.h

It sounds like you never copied config.h.W32 into config.h, because
the error message above clearly says the compiler cannot find it.
