I did a little work on several sections, just minor spelling and grammar fixes.
Points of further interest:
- Added template call to DraftPage. You can remove it whenever you like.
- Section 1.4, "versions and problems in compiler and linker", needs work. Regrettably, I am not sure enough of the information to rearrange it with any degree of confidence. It needs to be in several paragraphs, with possibly some short bullet lists.
Question: do you intend this page as a replacement for the current "Building on Windows", or a supplement to it?

Answer to TJ
I do not want this page to substitute the Windows build guide. MinGW port is a technical alternative to Microsoft Visual C++ but it is not intended to be a complete substitute.
- This wasn't entirely clear to me. Add some words? --TJ 10:14, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
So the build guide for MinGW should be a supplement to Windows build guide.
As to Section 1.4, I would like to have more comments from experts.

I would like to get the document to be reviewed by many people. So, I think it should be in TOC right away.
